Description
The molecules present before and after freeze drying were compared and analyzed. In both cases methylene chloride was used as the solvent. After the extraction of the organic layer 3 TLC's were taken, a chromatogram plot and GCMS report was obtained. In all 3 TLC’s no spotting was observed as the concentration of the extract was low resulting in bands on the plate. In the GCMS of the extract before freeze drying 19 molecules were identified. After freeze drying only 5 molecules were identified in the extract. Only one molecule was present in both cases.
