Application

16αHydroxytestosterone has been used as a reference standard for the evaluation of testosterone metabolites using ultra-performance liquid chromatography/tandem mass spectrometric (UPLC/MS/MS) techniques. This product has also been used to analyze the developmental profiles of testosterone hydroxylases in chickens.

This paper describes the development and partial validation of a fast, sensitive and specific ultra-performance liquid chromatography/tandem mass spectrometric (UPLC/MS/MS) method for the determination of testosterone (T) and its four metabolites, 6beta-OH-T, 16alpha-OH-T, 16beta-OH-T and 2alpha-OH-T, in in vitro samples.

A sensitive nonradiometric assay of aromatization of 16 alpha-hydroxylated androgens, 16 alpha-hydroxy-4-androstene-3,17-dione (16 alpha-OHA), and 16 alpha-hydroxytestosterone (16 alpha-OHT), has been developed using reverse-phase high-performance liquid chromatography with voltametric detector. The estrogens produced by human placental microsomes, estriol (E3) and

1. Steroids are known to act as permissive factors in hepatocytes. This study shows that dexamethasone (DEX) is a permissive factor for induction of CYP2B1/2, CYP3A1, CYP2A1 and probably also CYP2C11 in cultures with primary rat hepatocytes. 2. The induction
