A thin layer chromatographic method has been developed for the class separation of plant neutral lipids. Utilizing a two‐step development in one dimension, lipid mixtures are separated into hydrocarbon waxes, steryl esters, methyl esters, triglycerides, fatty acids, diglycerides, sterols, and monoglycerides. The method may be employed for either qualitative or preparative purposes.
