Steroid Profile: Differentiating testosterone administration from (simultaneous) ethanol consumption. Evaluation of newly developed Markers (acronym: SPOL)
Resource description
Project Title: Steroid Profile: Differentiating testosterone administration from (simultaneous) ethanol consumption. Evaluation of newly developed Markers (acronym: SPOL)
Researchers: Dr J. Pozo, Dr. T. Pascual, Dr. R. de la Torre
Institution: IMIM Hospital del Mar, Spain
Year accepted: 2018
Summary: This project aims to (i) evaluate the usefulness of phase II metabolites to differentiate between the consumption of alcohol alone and its consumption during testosterone administration, (ii) explore the potential of the determination of phase II metabolites in alternative matrices for the screening of testosterone misuse and (iii) look for the differences in a comprehensive steroid profile (in urine, plasma and saliva) between samples collected after testosterone administration and after the combination of testosterone and ethanol.
