Mass spectrometry of steroid glucuronide conjugates. I. Electron impact fragmentation of 5α-/5β-androstan-3α-ol-17-one glucuronides, 5α-estran-3α-ol-17-one glucuronide and deuterium-labelled analogues
chromatography to massspectrometry), there has been increased interest in new reference materials, for example in doping analysis with steroid glucuronide conjugates. The synthesized reference material has to pass several characterization steps including the use of gas chromatography/massspectrometry (GC/MS) for its structure confirmation. In the present study, the fragmentation and mass spectrometric
