Abstract
AN apparatus has been developed for measuring quantitatively, by counting, the distribution of radioactivity on filter paper chromatograms. The specific purpose in view has been to measure the amounts of radioactive phosphorus present in various phosphate esters as separated on filter paper chromatograms by the methods described recently by Hanes and Isherwood1.
