Improvements in the detection of phospholipids on paper chromatograms by neutron activation (with the formation of P32-compounds) have been made. Formaldehyde-treated papers were subjected to low neutron dosage after chromatographic development and the resulting radioactive spots were detected by automatic scanning and autoradiography.
