Preparation and antigenic properties of 5alpha-dihydrotestosterone-11-(O-carboxymethyl) oxime-BSA conjugate.

The C-11 (O-carboxymethyl) oxime derivative of 5-alphadihydrotestosterone (5alphaDHT) has been prepared. Due to steric hindrance at C-11, a novel two step procedure was used to introduce the (O-carboxymethyl) oxime at this position. Condensation of this oxime to bovine serum albumin afforded a conjugate which produced anti-5alphaDHT sera inoculated rabbits. Apart from a 30% cross reaction with testosterone, the antisera was reasonably specific for 5alphaDHT.

The specificity of antisera raised by oestradiol-17beta-3-hemisuccinyl-bovine serum albumin.

The preparation of pure oestradiol-17beta-3-hemisuccinyl-bovine serum albumin conjugate is described. Contrary to previous findings this antigen raised reasonably specific antisera in rabbits which possessed a cross reaction of only 2.0% with oestrone, and 0.8% with oestriol. The production of this specific antisera is considered to be due to the high purity of the antigen. The role of the C-3 phenolic hemisuccinyl linkage of the antigen in raising this specific antisera is discussed.
