    Abstract:
    A rapid, sensitive and specific method was developed for the simultaneous assay of testosterone, androstenedione and 6beta-hydroxytestosterone (6beta-OHT) in the TC199 tissue culture medium used in intestinal drug metabolism studies with the rat everted gut sac model. An electrospray LC-MS method was validated in the concentration range of 0.025-9.5 microM (7.2 ng-2.7 microg/mL) for testosterone and androstenedione and 0.01-4 microM (3 ng-1.2 microg/mL) for 6beta-hydroxytestosterone. The limits of quantification (LOQ) with an injection volume of 10 microL were 0.0005 microM (4.9 fmol, 1.4 pg injected), 0.004 microM (0.04 pmol, 11.4 pg injected) and 0.03 microM (0.3 pmol, 91 pg injected), respectively. The method also detected the other testosterone metabolites, the 16alpha-, 16beta-, 2beta- and 2alpha-hydroxytestosterones and was then used to study the metabolism of testosterone during its absorption by rat intestine in vitro, using everted gut sacs.
