6. Preliminary figures for androstenol excretion in urine are given. In the age group 18-45 years they ranged from 19 to 2630 ,ug./24 hr. in men and from 66 to 1010 ,ug./24 hr. in women. This work was carried out partly during the tenure of a personal grant from the Medical Research Council to B. W. L. B., who wishes to express his gratitude. Our gratefiul thanks are due to Dr J. A. Pollock, Miss S. Johnson and Miss J. Bradley for their invaluable technical assistance, to the many people who provided 24 hr. urine specimens, to Organon Laboratories Ltd. for a generous gift of androsterone, and to the Medical Research Council for samples of steroids from their Reference Collection. Finally we are indebted to Dr C. L. Hewett of Organon Laboratories Ltd. for his suggestions on the route for the preparation of androstenol.
