Abstract

Pieces of foetal bovine adrenals were cultured in vitro in the presence of14C-1 sodium acetate. The following radioactive corticosteroids were sought: aldosterone, cortisone, hydrocortisone, corticosterone, 11-dehydrocorticosterone, 11-deoxycorticosterone and 11-deoxy-17α-hydroxycorticosterone. Four of them have been identified by thin-layer radiochromatography and derivative formation, i.e. hydrocortisone, corticosterone, 11-dehydrocorticosterone and 11-deoxycorticosterone.
