I am trying to perform an experiment to see what color dyes 
exists in markers and drink mixes thru paper chromotography. I 
have performed the experiment with little success.  The dye is 
running up the paper, but not seperating. I have tried many 
different things with no success, can you offer any suggestions 
on how to preform this experiment so the colors will seperate.  
Any help would be GREATLY appreciated.  Thanks  Daniele
