Anabolic Steroids- 6-B-Hydroxymethandrostenolone and methandrostenolone, Alltech Application Note 0034E, May 14, 2003.

The anabolic steroids B-Hydroxymethandrostenolone and methandrostenolone were separated by HPLC/ELSD.

Separation of the anabolic steroids B-Hydroxymethandrostenolone and methandrostenolone was achieved by reversed phase isocratic elution with acetonitile/water in around 6 minutes using an Adsorbosphere C8, 5µm, 250 x 4.6mm column (Part No. 287112). Detection was by evaporative light scattering using an Alltech 500 ELSD (Evaporative Light Scattering Detector).

In ELSD, the mobile phase is first evaporated. Solid particles remaining from the sample are then carried in the form of a mist into a cell where they are detected by a laser.
