“…The separation was observed by ultraviolet light and spots were developed with xanthydrol reagent; the absorbance was measured colorimetrically. Additional paper chromatography techniques have been reported (242,251,438,469), and the paper partition chromatography of digitalis purpurea glycosides has been described (433). As a supplement to a prior paper, the separation of purpurea glycosides A and B of digitoxin, gitoxin, and diginin, using reverse-phase chromatography, was reported by Gunzel and Weiss (189).…”
