Notes:
The paper discusses errors and error propagation in respect of graphic methods in quantitative in situ measurements in TLC. An error of 0.3% is possible by measuring only peak height if optimal conditions are chosen. This is in good agreement with analysis done practically which gives errors in the order of 0.3-0.6%. If the peak area is evaluated using the approximation peak height × half width, the error is in the order of 0.6%, but in real experiments only 1.5% had been found. Systematic errors in determining peak heights are introduced by the time constant of the amplifiers and the recorder.
