Detection and determination of hexoestrol in meat
Abstract
A gas-chromatographic procedure for the detection of hexoestrol at the 0·4 × 10–9 g level is described. Other oestrogenic substances can be detected at similar levels by the same method. A method based on this procedure has been devised, which enables hexoestrol to be determined in meat samples at levels down to 0·1 p.p.m.
