Description

Androstane-3,17-Diol 17-Sulfate is a sulfated derivative of the androstane steroid diol, serving as a key intermediate and reference standard in biochemical research. This compound is critical for studying steroid metabolism, sulfation pathways, and hormone regulation mechanisms. It is primarily utilized by pharmaceutical R&D laboratories, academic research institutions, and diagnostic manufacturers focused on endocrinology and metabolic disease studies.

Application

• Biochemical Research Intermediate: Used as a precursor or reference compound in the synthesis and study of other steroid metabolites and conjugates.
• Endocrinology Studies: Serves as a standard for investigating androgen metabolism, sulfotransferase enzyme activity, and steroid hormone inactivation pathways.
• Diagnostic Development: Employed in the development and calibration of analytical assays, such as LC-MS/MS, for quantifying steroid sulfates in biological samples.
• Metabolic Pathway Analysis: A tool for researching steroid sulfation and desulfation cycles relevant to conditions like adrenal disorders and hormone-dependent cancers.
• Pharmaceutical Reference Standard: Used for quality control and method validation in the production of steroid-based pharmaceuticals and related APIs.
