Abstract
A TECHNIQUE is desirable for estimating amounts of fatty acids separated by partition paper chromatography, without necessity for time-consuming elution, and free from inherent errors of strip photometry. Radiometric methods can meet these requirements, and in chromatographic applications have sometimes allowed accurate definition of spot geometry, which in some cases may be quantitatively related to spot content1.
