摘要:
Synthesis of the 11-alpha-hemiglutaryl-derivative of 5-alpha-androstane-3-alpha, 17-beta-diol 17-glucuronide (androstanediol-17G) starting from androsta-4,9(11)-diene-3,17-dione through a 10-step sequence and the preparation of its bovine serum albumin conjugate is described. By using this conjugate, antiserum was raised in rabbits which proved to be very specific for androstanediol-17G. A direct radioimmunoassay using a double antibody procedure is described for the measurement of androstanediol-17G from plasma without prior chromatography.
