General description

Phosphomolybdic acid solution (PMA), a ready-to-use spray solution is a component of Masson′s trichrome stain. It functions as a mordant, forming a bridge between the substrate and the primary dye.

Application

Phosphomolybdic acid solution is a ready-to-use spray for the visualization of steroids, alkaloids, antioxidants, and terpenes resolved by thin-layer chromatography (TLC) and high-performance TLC (HPTLC).
