In addition, androgen excess has been shown to be the endocrine abnormality which characterizes patients with breast cancer. We recently developed a method for the measurement of urinary testosterone employing solid-phase extraction and HPLC purification before quantitative measurement by gas chromatography. In the present report we verify the feasibility of the method for the simultaneous measurement of 5\u03b1-androstane-3\u03b1,17\u03b2-diol and 5\u03b2-androstane-3\u03b1,17\u03b2-diol in addition to testosterone in the same urine sample. The mean recovery for the whole procedure was 89.8% for 5\u03b1-androstane-3\u03b1,17\u03b2-diol and 87.8% for 5\u03b2-androstane-3\u03b1, 17\u03b2-diol. The estimates of the coefficients of variation were 4.9% (95% confidence limits: 3.9\u20136.5%) and 3.9% (95% confidence limits: 3.1\u20135.2%), respectively. Accuracy was evaluated by standard addition and dilution assays and a linear relationship was found between expected and observed values (r\n                    <jats:sup>2<\/jats:sup>\n                    =0.997 for 5\u03b1-androstane-3\u03b1,17\u03b2-diol and r\n                    <jats:sup>2<\/jats:sup>\n                    =0.999 for 5\u03b2-androstane-3\u03b1,17\u03b2-diol). The method is rapid, effective and suitable for the measurement of testosterone, 5\u03b1-androstanediol and 5\u03b2-an-drostanediol in the same urine sample.\n                  <\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1177\/172460089901400306","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2018,3,13]],"date-time":"2018-03-13T05:38:23Z","timestamp":1520919503000},"page":"154-159","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":6,"title":["Urinary 5\u03b1-Androstanediol and 5\u03b2-Androstanediol Measurement by Gas Chromatography after Solid-Phase Extraction and High-Performance Liquid Chromatography"],"prefix":"10.1177","volume":"14","author":[{"given":"G.J.","family":"Minut","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Endocrine Unit, Division of Nuclear Medicine, National Cancer Institute, Milano"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"M.","family":"Cambi\u00c8","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Endocrine Unit, Division of Nuclear Medicine, National Cancer Institute, Milano"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"M.","family":"Lanzoni","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Division of Medical Statistics and Biometry, National Cancer Institute, Milano"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"E.","family":"Marubini","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Division of Medical Statistics and Biometry, National Cancer Institute, Milano"},{"name":"Institute of Medical Statistics and Biometry, University of Milan, Milano -
