Two group of students wish to analyse caffeine content in tea samples. Group 1 performed the analysis using thin layer chromatography. Group 2 wish to conduct the analysis using analytical instrumentation. Suggest a possible analytical instrument method for Group 2. Briefly explain the procedural steps before instrumentation. List another two applications of this instrument.
