Abstract
Several methods for the determination of corticosterone in biological material are based on the capacity of corticosterone to fluoresce in sulfuric acid (1–4). The procedure reported herewith consists essentially of the method of Guillemin et al. (3) and the sulfuric acid-ethanol mixture of Stahl et al. (5) with modifications to increase accuracy.

A simplified fluorometric procedure for corticosterone or hydrocortisone has been described and has practical applications for the estimation of these steroids in samples that are small in volume or low in concentration, or in studies that are designed primarily to demonstrate increases or decreases in adrenocortical hormones in plasma or adrenals without requiring absolute specificity.

In the hypophysectomized animals, large doses of highly purified FSH, LH, TSH, STH, α-MSH and arginine vasopressin have no effect on the corticoid levels.

A lipid extract of the pooled preincubation media of incubated rat adrenal sections or ofRat adrenal tissue homogcnates incubated in vitro was chromatographcd on paper chromatograms to identify two compounds, X1 and X2, which were not identified although X2 was crystallized and several of its physical and chemical characteristics noted.

An extraction and purification procedure, similar to that originally proposed by Silber et al. (11) for the fluorimetric determination of corticosterone in rat peripheral plasma, was adapted to quantitating 18-hydroxydeoxycortic testosterone in arterial and adrenal venous rat plasma with the Porter- Silber reagent.
