Not for use in diagnostic procedures. Key Benefi ts The Most Accurate Steroid Hormone Analysis Steroid hormones are a group of metabolites that are derived from cholesterol. They are produced primarily by adrenal glands, testes, and ovaries. Based on their receptor, steroid hormones are classifi ed into fi ve groups: glucocorticoids, mineralocorticoids, progestogens, androgens, and estrogens. Steroid hormones exert multiple biological functions, including regulation of glucose levels, cell growth, and proliferation. The trend in steroid analysis is moving from measuring single or small sets of steroid hormones with immunoassays towards broader, mass spectrometry-based quantifi cation of steroid hormones (Jeanneret et al., J Chromatogr A 2016). The AbsoluteIDQ® Stero17 Kit is designed to help researchers to unravel the complexities of steroid hormone effects. It provides highly repro- ducible data on 17 functionally important steroid hormones in a single assay.
