The electron impact mass spectra of some clinically important androsterones and androsterols as their formate derivatives.
The electron impact mass spectra of a number of androsterones and androsterols as their formate ester derivatives are discussed; these ester derivatives are in common use for routine assay of 17-oxosteroids and 17-oxogenic steroids in biological samples.
