Determination of Estrone and 17β-Estradiol in Human Hair by Gas Chromatography–Mass Spectrometry

The study focused on developing a method to determine the presence of estrone and 17β-estradiol in human hair using gas chromatography–mass spectrometry. This method provided a way to measure these hormones, which are important for understanding various physiological and pathological conditions. The research was conducted by the Bioanalysis and Biotransformation Research Center at the Korean Institute of Science and Technology and the College of Pharmacy at Sungkyunkwan University. The study contributed to the field by offering a reliable analytical technique for hormone analysis in hair samples.
