title: Anabolics: the approach taken in the USA.
abstract: In the United States, the Food and Drug Administration has developed a scientifically sound and rational approach to assure human safety from both naturally occurring and synthetically-derived hormones used in animal production. On this basis, estradiol, progesterone, androsterone, zeranol and trenbolone have been registered. For trenbolone a maximal residue limit of 50 ppb for meat has been accepted.
