Abstract
WHATMAN No. 4 filter paper impregnated with 10 per cent paraffin oil, and methanol saturated with paraffin oil (prepared by shaking methanol with paraffin oil in a separating funnel) as the ascending mobile phase, were found suitable for paper chromatography of the polycyclic tar hydrocarbons (for others, see ref. 1).
