Archaeometry, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Geochemical data compiled from dried sediments from three water reservoirs at the ancient Maya city of Ucanal, Petén, Guatemala, reveal low to undetectable fecal biomarker concentrations. These low concentrations may be the result of the aerobic decay of sterols combined with well‐managed waste disposal practices.

Highly sensitive analysis of sterol profiles in human serum by LC-ESI-MS/MSs⃞
Journal of Lipid Research, 2008 We have developed a highly sensitive and specific method for the analysis of serum sterol profiles. Sterols in 1 μl of dried serum were derivatized into picolinyl esters (3β-picolinate) and analyzed by liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC ...

Synthesis of conjugated cholesterol and cholestanols.
Chemical and Pharmaceutical Bulletin, 1979 The glucuronides, sulfates, glucosides and N-acetylglucosaminides of cholesterol and epimeric 5α-cholestan-3-ols have been synthesized. The formation of a β-glucoside linkage was readily achieved by means of the Koenigs-Knorr reaction with the corresponding α-acetohalosugar, employing cadmium carbonate as a catalyst.

On the substrate specificity of human CYP27A1: implications for bile acid and cholestanol formation
, 2003 The mitochondrial sterol 27-hydroxylase (CYP27A1) is required for degradation of the C27-sterol side chain in bile acid biosynthesis. CYP27A1 seems, however, to have roles beyond this, as illustrated by patients with a deficient sterol 27-hydroxylase due

Case Report: Cerebrotendinous xanthomatosis
Indian Journal of Radiology and Imaging, 2009 Cerebrotendinous xanthomatosis is a rare genetic disorder. We present and discuss the clinical, radiological, and histopathologic findings in a 36-year-old woman who had juvenile cataract, childhood diarrhea, mental retardation, cerebellar ataxia, and ...
