PMA & Thin-Layer Chromatography

[TheGamer]

Ok..
I will have my TLC plates in about a week, which I will be using for in-club testing..
anyhow, I will have a reference book for the most common substances (MDMA, MDEA, MDA.. etc)
does anyone know the result of PMA on a chromatography test (please... if you're going to say "No Colour") forget it... This will show a result.. but what
I'm almost tempted to offer anyone who has a known PMA pill a TLC plate, and liquid to test it and scan, and post the results..
Anyone able to answer?

Sorry, I don't have any analytical data about MDEA just now. I'll post if I find something.
