Gas Chromatographic Method

ABSTRACT The determination of testosterone in urine provides an easier means for the appreciation of androgenicity than plasma analysis. On this basis a search for progesterone in urine was made without success. Progesterone could not be detected by the gas chromatographic method used. This negative result was confirmed when progesterone-4-14C was injected intravenously and neither radioactive progesterone nor labelled 20α-hydroxy-pregn-4-en-3-one and/or 20β-hydroxy-pregn-4-en-3-one could be detected in the urine.
