Description

General description

Florisil, adsorbent for the separation of lipids is a commercially-prepared magnesia silica gel. It has a coarse mesh size which helps in rapid flow rate. Florisil is effective in promoting [1,3]-sigmatropic shift of myceophenolic acid related allyl phenyl ethers. Florisil cartridges are used in atmospheric sampling to assess possible interference from air contaminants.

Application

Florisil^® TLC was used in TLC separations of organic compounds.
