A method to determine both urinary concentrations and carbon isotope ratios of 11‐ketotestosterone (KT) and its metabolites was developed and validated for sports drug testing. KT itself was identified as the most promising marker to detect its misuse during both the initial testing procedure and the confirmation procedure based on isotope ratio mass ...

The potential deodorizing effects of Saccharina japonica have been evaluated by determining their deodorizing performance, but they are yet to be validated in experimental animals. The deodorizing effects of S. japonica were examined in an animal model using a novel odor marker associated with aging by comparing the concentration of odor component in ...

A man who attempted suicide after the use of androgenic‐anabolic steroids (AAS) was treated with fluoxetine. This apparently prevented anxiety, depression, and suicide ideation, despite the concurrent use of AAS. Urinary concentrations of androgens and fluoxetine were monitored by the Brazilian Laboratory of Doping Control.

Androstenol – a Steroid Derived Odor Activates the Hypothalamus in Women
Whether pheromone signaling exists in humans is still a matter of intense discussion. In the present study we tested if smelling of Androstenol, a steroid produced by the human body and reported to affect human behavior, may elicit cerebral activation.

Batrachopolyenes: Volatile Norsteroids from Femoral Scent Glands of Frogs
A new family of volatile steroidal natural products, the batrachopolyenes, have been isolated and identified from torrent frogs. A total synthesis established their structure. These norsteroids contain a unique contracted A‐ring and unusual functionalization across the structural core, which were installed along a divergent total synthetic sequence ...
