Abstract
In expts. on capons, mice, and rats, desoxycorticosterone was found to have an androgenic activity about 1/30 that of androsterone. It resembled androsterone more than testosterone in that it was relatively more active on the comb than on the rodent prostate and seminal vesicles.This publication has 5 references indexed in Scilit:
