AP ER chromatography in fish taxonomy

  • Published:
Proceedings / Indian Academy of Sciences

Summary

Paper partition chromatography by the ascending and disk methods has been applied to the study of muscle fromSardinella spp.,Leiognathus spp.,Caranx spp.,Hemirhamphus georgii andAtherina sp.

Experimental conditions have been standardised under which differences among species of fish could be made out qualitatively and on the basis of quantitative measurements, using fish tissue of varying degrees of freshness. Methods have been studied for the preservation of fish muscle for chromatographic work.

The applications of paper chromatography to problems in fishery biology have been indicated.
