General description

Androstenedione is a hormone and intermediate in the biochemical pathway for producing testosterone, estrone, and estradiol. This stable labeled internal standard is suitable for numerous LC/MS and GC/MS applications in endocrinology, clinical chemistry, neonatal screening, sports testing, and isotope dilution methods.

Application


  • Stable Isotope-Labeled Steroids: Research in "Biotechnol J" explores the production and purity of 9-OH-AD from phytosterols by balancing metabolic flux, utilizing stable isotope-labeled intermediates like Androstene-3,17-dione-¹³C₃ to elucidate the pathways involved in steroid metabolism (Zhu et al., 2024).

  • Steroid Metabolism Studies: The work published in "Methods Mol Biol" details the scale-up of phytosterols bioconversion into Androstenedione, demonstrating the practical applications of carbon-13 enriched androstenedione in enhancing biochemical production processes and pharmaceutical research (Martínez-Cámara et al., 2023).

  • Mass Spectrometry Standards: Another study in "Methods Mol Biol" discusses the biocatalysis of steroids in both aqueous and organic media, highlighting the use of carbon-13 tracers like Androstene-3,17-dione-¹³C₃ to track enzymatic reactions and optimize conditions for industrial applications (de Carvalho CCCR and Fernandes, 2023).

  • Analytical Reference Material: Further use of Androstene-3,17-dione-¹³C₃ is reported in the small-scale bioconversion of β-Sitosterol, where microtiter plates and microfluidic reactors are employed to study steroid transformations, thus providing crucial insights for pharmaceutical and biochemical research (Marques et al., 2023).

  • Pharmaceutical Research Chemicals: The identification and characterization of bile acid aerobic catabolic pathways using Pseudomonas highlight the utility of carbon-13 labeled compounds like Androstene-3,17-dione-¹³C₃ in understanding complex metabolic networks, aiding in the development of therapeutic agents (Luengo et al., 2023).
