Crystalline Œstrone isolated from Urine of the Laying Hen

ALTHOUGH œstriol, œstrone and œstradiol have been detected in mixed avian excreta 1 and in extracts of ovaries of laying hens 2 by chromatographic methods, it would appear that only œstradiol-17β has been isolated hitherto from avian material in crystalline form and identified by infra-red spectroph...

Zusammenfassung:ALTHOUGH œstriol, œstrone and œstradiol have been detected in mixed avian excreta 1 and in extracts of ovaries of laying hens 2 by chromatographic methods, it would appear that only œstradiol-17β has been isolated hitherto from avian material in crystalline form and identified by infra-red spectrophotometry 3 . We have now secured similar evidence for the presence of œstrone in avian urine.
