Abstract

The bis (γ -methylthiobutyryl) ester of diethylstilbestrol possessed higher estrogenic activity than diethylstilbestrol based on mouse uterine bioassays. A similar comparison of these hormones in young female broiler chicks resulted in approximately the same stimulation of oviduct development, but the ester did not cause hypertrophy of the liver nor did it elevate plasma lipids to the degree found with diethylstilbestrol.
