    Notes: We described a chemiluminescent immunoassay (CIA) for 5α-androstane-3α, 17β-diol-glucuronide (3α-diol-G) in human diluted urine. This method allowed the direct measurement in 1μl of urine avoiding the hydrolysis and extraction steps for sample pretreatment commonly used in routine methods. The hapten 3α-diol-G was synthesized by a Koenigs-Knorr reaction. The immunogenic complex, 3α-diol-G conjugated to bovine serum albumin (BSA), was employed to induce the formation of specific antibodies in New Zealand rabbits. In addition, the required chemiluminescent (CL) tracer was prepared. The characteristics of the antibody was determined as regard to specificity and sensitivity and the precision of the assay methods established. In 22 hirsute women affected by policystic ovarian syndrome we found 3α-diol-G values significantly (p 〈 0.01) higher (146.28 ± 73.77μg/g of creatinine; mean ± SD) than those observed in normal women (72.1 ± 32.58 μg/g of creatinine; mean ± SD).

    Notes: Pregnanetriol-3α-glucuronide (PTG) is the majority urinary metabolite of 17-hydroxyprogesterone (17OHP) and it typically increases in the commonest form of congenital adrenal hyperplasia (CAH), due to 21 hydroxylase deficiency.We developed a simple chemiluminescent immunoassay for the direct measurement of PTG in diluted urine in order to avoid the preliminary hydrolysis and extraction steps that are usually employed in gas-liquid chromatographic methods. The immunogenic complex PTG-bovine-serum-albumin was used to induce the formation of specific antibodies in New Zealand rabbits. In addition, PTG was conjugated to aminoethylethylisoluminol and the resulting tracer was characterized by mass spectrometry and used to monitor the immunological reaction. The characteristics of the antibody were determined with regard to specificity and sensitivity. The precision of the assay method was also established.PTG excretion was studied before and after the ACTH stimulation test (1 mg synthetic ACTH i.m.) in 11 normal women and in one subject affected by CAH due to 21-hydroxylase deficiency. PTG levels well correlated with 17OHP plasma concentrations both under basal and stimulated conditions, in normal women as well as in the patient affected by CAH.
