General description

A certified solution standard applicable to use in sports testing, urine drug testing, and diagnostic testing by LC-MS/MS or GC/MS. Testosterone, a hormone from the androgen group, is an important sex hormone and anabolic steroid often abused in sports.

Application


  • Chemical Castration Studies: Testosterone solution is employed in veterinary applications, notably in the chemical castration of dogs using calcium chloride, demonstrating its utility in reproductive health management and animal welfare (Nader et al., 2023).

  • Neuroendocrine Research: It is utilized in studying the interplay between hypothalamic subunits and sex hormone levels in Alzheimer′s disease, highlighting its critical role in understanding neurodegenerative diseases and the neuroendocrine system (Ofori et al., 2024).

  • Endocrine Research: Testosterone solution is vital for research into the effects of melatonin on reproductive functions in hypothyroidism models, aiding in the exploration of hormonal interactions and therapeutic targets (Ezzat et al., 2024).

  • Reproductive Biology: In animal studies, testosterone is crucial for assessing the impact of treatments like intratesticular injections on sperm quality, oxidative stress, and testicular pathology, providing insights into male fertility and potential treatments (Baqerkhani et al., 2024).

  • Pharmacodynamics in Dermatology: The hormone′s solutions are used in pharmacodynamic studies to assess treatments for conditions like androgenetic alopecia, showcasing its importance in dermatological and biochemical research (Li et al., 2024).
