  1. Abstract:

    The separation of a Penicillium fungal extract by two dimensional-multimodal thin layer chromatography and gradient high performance liquid chromatography is reported. The fungal extract was resolved on a cyano derivatized silica gel TLC plate using two dimensional development; first dimension in methylene chloride: hexane:acetic acid (9:10:1), taken out, dried, turned 90 degrees, and developed in the second dimension in acetonitrile:methanol: water (40:37:32). Over 20 different spots were observed under UV radiation. Three different mobile phase gradients, acetonitrile, methanol, and tetrahydrofuran as primary organic solvents were used. Different selectivities; resulted in each gradient. The best result was obtained using the acetonitrile gradient, 25% to 100% acetonitrile in 30 minutes. Also, it was found that using photo diode array detection in natural products research is a must when quantitation is required, since the mixture contains compounds of different absorptivities. The results show that changing the wave length of detection resulted in different peak heights (areas).
