Steroid detection and identification remain key issues in toxicology, drug testing, medical diagnostics, food safety control, and doping control. In this study, we evaluate the capabilities and usefulness of analyzing non-hydrolyzed sulfated steroids with gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) instead of the conventionally applied liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS) approach. Sulfates of 31 steroids were synthesized and their MS and chromatographic behavior studied by chemical ionization-GC-triple quadrupole MS (CI-GC-TQMS) and low energy-electron ionization-GC-quadrupole time-of-flight-MS (LE-EI-GC-QTOF-MS).

In this paper, mesterolone metabolic profiles were investigated carefully. Mesterolone was administered to one healthy male volunteer. Urinary extracts were analyzed by liquid chromatography quadruple time-of-flight mass spectrometry (LC-QTOFMS) for the first time.

A gas chromatography/mass spectrometry (GC/MS) method is described which uses negative ion chemical ionization (NCI) and tandem mass spectrometry (MS/MS) for the determination of eight anabolic steroids in human urine. Eight anabolic steroids were derivatized by heptafluorobutyric anhydride (HFBA), and were determined using GC/NCI-MS and GC/NCI-MS/MS. The linear correlation coefficients for calibration in NCI-MS/MS were in the range 0.

The possible effect of Mesterolone (Schering N.V., Brussels, Belgium) (1 alpha-methyl-5-alpha-androstane-17 beta-ol-3-one) on semen quality and fertility of men with idiopathic oligoasthenospermia and/or teratozoospermia has been evaluated in a double-blind trial.

Two hundred fifty subfertile men with idiopathic oligospermia (count less than 20 million/ml) were treated with mesterolone (100-150 mg/day) for 12 months. Seminal analysis were assayed 3 times and serum follicle stimulating hormone (FSH) luteinizing hormone (LH) and plasma testosterone were assayed once before treatment and repeated at 3, 6, 9 and 12 months after the initiation of treatment. One hundred ten patients (44%) had normal serum FSH, LH and plasma testosterone, 85 patients (34%) had low serum FSH, LH and low plasma testosterone.
