3. INTRODUCTION
 Dr.M.Tswett introduced paper chromatography in
1906.
 Paper chromatography is simple and most widely
used separation technique.
 Partition chromatography principle.
 The separation is effected by differential migration
of the mixture of substances, which takes place due
to difference in partition.
 Analysis of unknown substances.

4. TYPES OF PAPER CHROMATOGRAPHY
1. Ascending Chromatography.
2. Descending Chromatography.
3. Ascending-Descending Chromatography.
4. Radial or Circular Chromatography.
5.Two dimensional Chromatography.

10. APPLICATIONS OF PAPER CROMATOGRAPHY
 A qualitative method for identifying components
of mixture.
 Identification of drug and impurities
 In forensic studies( DNA and RNA sequencing).
 As an analytical chemistry technique (Colored
mixtures like pigments).
 Unknown organic and inorganic compounds.
 Identification of biomolecules .
 It’s an inexpensive and rapid method for
separation.

11. CONCLUSION
 From this presentation, I came to know about
importance and types of paper chromatography.
 How it is useful in separation and analysis of
mixture of components.
 Paper chromatography is widely used in areas
pharmaceutical and many chemical industries.
 As it is inexpensive and simple, it is basic
chromatographic technique performed in
laboratories.
