Description générale

5α-Androst-16-en-3-one (androstenone) is a mammalian pheromone found in boar saliva, human sweat, and human urine.

Application

5α-Androst-16-en-3-one has been used:
  • to quantify its concentration in various fat tissues
  • to study its trigeminal percept and implications on the rate of specific anosmia
  • to study the effects of immunocastration on meat quality and sensory properties of pork bellies
