Using the S-rR strain of the medaka Oryzias latipes, we examined the effect of a non-aromatizable androgen on sex determination. Intrafollicular immature oocytes isolated before breakdown of the germinal vesicle were incubated in the presence of 17alpha-methyldihydrotestosterone (MDHT) for about
General and comparative endocrinology, 78(2), 218-223 (1990-05-01)
The mechanism of sex determination in channel catfish Ictalurus punctatus was evaluated by hormonal and genetic methods. Aromatizable and nonaromatizable androgens, as well as an estrogen, caused feminization in fish fed steroids for 21 days after yolk-sac absorption. The effectiveness

Due to the potential for misuse of a wide range of anabolic steroids in horse racing, a screening test to detect multiple compounds, via a common class of metabolites, would be a valuable forensic tool. An enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA)
General and comparative endocrinology, 145(1), 67-74 (2005-09-03)
To understand the effect of testosterone on sex differentiation, the quantities of testosterone (T) and estradiol-17beta (E2) in developing eggs of medaka (Oryzias latipes) were measured by radioimmunoassay, and the influence on sex differentiation of treating embryos with exogenous androgens
Medicine and science in sports and exercise, 25(7), 815-822 (1993-07-01)
The effects of anabolic-androgenic steroid administration and exercise training on various aspects of hepatic function were investigated in sedentary and trained (treadmill for 12 wk) male and female rats treated orally with fluoxymesterone or methylandrostanolone (2 mg.kg-1 body weight, 5
