Sample application is the first step in the workflow of planar chromatography. Samples are applied onto the plate either as spots or as bands. The precision of the applied volume, the exact positioning and the compactness of the application zone determine the quality of the final result.

Three different models are available:
Nanomat 4 and Capillary Dispenser for easy application of samples in the form of spots onto TLC/HPTLC layers.
Linomat 5 for samples sprayed automatically onto TLC/HPTLC plates in the form of bands.
Automatic TLC Sampler 4 (ATS 4) for fully automatic sample application for qualitative and quantitative analyses as well as for preparative separations.
