The Rp values of the different organic acids are distinctly different and therefore a clear separation on the paper is possible. We used the technique developed by Nordmann and co-workers (1954. Acad. Sci., Paris, 238, 2459), and Fig. 1 demonstrates the position on a two-dimensional descending chromatogram of some non-volatile, water-soluble organic acid

The position of some organic acids in the urine of a normal adult on a two-dimen- sional descending chromatogram. Ci = Citric acid, Ta = Tartaric, Ma = Malic, Gly = Glycolic, a-ce = a-ketoglutaric, Su = Succinic, Ac ^Aconitic, Glu = Glutaric, p-hy = [B-hydroxy- butyric, La = Lactic, Hi = Hippuric. Nordmann has found in the urine of normal adults. There is clear separa- tion of citric acid, tartaric, malic, a-ketoglutaric, succinic, aconitic, lactic, glycolic, hippuric, glutaric and p-hydroxybutyric acids. One spot applies to both sulphate and phosphate, if there is any phosphate in the urine. Using this method the organic acids give yellow spots on a blue-greenish background. These spots have the advantage that they do not fade but get more intense with time. We have so far examined urines passed by newborn babies on the first, second and seventh days of life, but we have not done enough to give a complete answer yet. Citric acid appears to be.
