A radioimmunoassay for the measurement of both unconjugated and conjugaged estetrol in plasma has been developed. The antiserum obtained after 6 months of immunization with 6-oxoestetrol-6-(O-carboxy-methyl)oxim-BSA was used at a final dilution of 1:90,000 and showed almost no cross reaction with other steroids except for estriol at 1.24%. Esterol-glucosiduronate was synthesized by incubating with adrenalectomized rat liver homogenate and uridine diphosphoglucuronic acid. Then, plasma estetrol-glucosiduronate was measured in the same manner for unconjugated estetrol after hydrolysis with beta-glucuronidase. Sephadex LH-20 column chromatography (7X110 mm, benzene:methanol, 85:15) was employed for accurate assessment. The sensitivity was 10 pg and the smallest amount measurable was 40 pg/sample. The method bland was consistently negligible. The intra and inter assay precision was 11.8% and 14.2% for unconjugated estetrol and that for estetrol-glucosiduronate was 13.5% and 17.1%.

D011247 Pregnancy The status during which female mammals carry their developing young (EMBRYOS or FETUSES) in utero before birth, beginning from FERTILIZATION to BIRTH. Gestation,Pregnancies
D011863 Radioimmunoassay Classic quantitative assay for detection of antigen-antibody reactions using a radioactively labeled substance (radioligand) either directly or indirectly to measure the binding of the unlabeled substance to a specific antibody or other receptor system. Non-immunogenic substances (e.g., haptens) can be measured if coupled to larger carrier proteins (e.g., bovine gamma-globulin or human serum albumin) capable of inducing antibody formation.

D004953 Estetrol A metabolite of ESTRIOL with a 15-alpha-hydroxyl group. Estetrol can be converted from estriol sulfate or DEHYDROEPIANDROSTERONE SULFATE by the fetal-placental unit. 15 alpha-Hydroxyestriol,15-alpha-Hydroxy-Estriol,15 alpha Hydroxy Estriol,15 alpha Hydroxyestriol
D004964 Estriol A hydroxylated metabolite of ESTRADIOL or ESTRONE that has a hydroxyl group at C3, 16-alpha, and 17-beta position. Estriol is a major urinary estrogen. During PREGNANCY, a large amount of estriol is produced by the PLACENTA. Isomers with inversion of the hydroxyl group or groups are called epiestriol.

D004966 Estrogens, Conjugated (USP) A pharmaceutical preparation containing a mixture of water-soluble, conjugated estrogens derived wholly or in part from URINE of pregnant mares or synthetically from ESTRONE and EQUILIN. It contains a sodium-salt mixture of estrone sulfate (52-62%) and equilin sulfate (22-30%) with a total of the two between 80-88%. Other concomitant conjugates include 17-alpha-dihydroequilin, 17-alpha-estradiol, and 17-beta-dihydroequilin. The potency of the preparation is expressed in terms of an equivalent quantity of sodium estrone sulfate.
