Abstract
CHROMATOGRAPHIC separations have now been achieved using porous glass1 as a medium. Its extreme inertness, optical transparency, and small pore diameter (about 4 mµ) suggested this usage. Initial results strongly indicate that unusually fine chromatograms can be obtained with this material. Other than in the choice of medium, there is little difference between the techniques described here and those commonly used in paper chromatography.
