because it is a locating agent that identify the different substances , espically the invisible amine acid

Why you will spray ninhydrin for analysis in chromatography?
Since amino acids are colourless compounds, ninhydrin is used for detecting them. To identify this, after development, the TLC plate is sprayed with ninhydrin reagent and dried in an oven, at 105°C for about 5 minutes. Ninhydrin reacts with α- amino acids that results in purple coloured spots [(due to the formation of the complex - Rheuman's purple).
What color develops when ninhydrin react with amino acids?
These are the amino acids that will yield positive result to the ninhydrin test: Non-polar amino acids: Glycine, Alanine, Valine, Leucine, Isoleucine, Phenylalanine, Methionine, Tryptophan Polar Neutral Amino acids: Serine, Cysteine, Threonine, Asparagine, Glutamine, Tyrosine Polar Acidic Amino Acids: Aspartic acid and Glutamic acid Polar Basic Amino Acids: Histidine, Lysine, Arginine

What is the spraying reagent used for citric acid paper chromatography?
ninhydrin reagent
Why is it necessary to spray the chromatogram with resorcinol?
Resorcinol is a colouring agent for some chromatography experiments.
When the amino acids are colourless how will you get to know that which acid is this?
It really depends on the type of chromatography. E.g. with thin layer chromatography, UV light is used, and the amount of light that is absorbed is measured, and they can tell the amino acid from this. In paper chromatography, a substance called ninhydrin is sprayed onto the separated amino acids and they become visible.
Why is ninhydrin used in amino analysis in TLC?
Ninhydrin is used in amino acid TLC because it readily stains amino acids by reacting with the amine groups. This reaction takes place very quickly and creates a brownish-color that can be easily visualized.
Is ninhydrin the same as super glue?
NO, ninhydrin is not the same as super glue
Does ninhydrin has flaws?
Yes ninhydrin does have flaws. The most common flaw of ninhydrin is the fact that it is so sensitive to the extent of not recording a fingerprint if enough perspiration wasn't created.
Why it is necessary to spray a chromatogram with a locating agent?
It help to separate and analyze colorless substances in chromatography by reacting with the colorless substance to form colored spots on the chromatogram.

What is the molecular formula of ninhydrin?
Well, the best I could come up with is it's either:C9H6O2orC4H3O2If someone knows any different please correct me.jman63: it is actually C9H6O4

Would ninhydrin test be reliable in determining the presence of proteins?
No! because the Ninhydrin test is mostly used to detect ammonia or primary secondary amines
