Perfluorotolyl (PFT)-ether and perfluorotoly-trimethylsilyl (PFT-TMS) ether derivatives of oestrone, $17{\alpha}$- and $17{\beta}$oestradiol were prepared under phase transfer conditons. The former derivatives under negative ion chemical ionization conditions gave significant ions in the mass spectrometer but $17{\alpha}$- and $17{\beta}$ -oestradiol gave poor resolution. However, the PFT-TMS derivatives of 17.${\alpha}$- and$17{\beta}$-oestradiol showed good resolution. These derivatives were used for the analysis of oestrogens in bovine aqueous humour, vitreous humour and retina. The mean $({\pm}SEM)$ concentrations of oestrone in bovine aqueous humour (n=18), vitreous humour (n=18) and bovine retina (n=4) were $0.47{\pm}0.11$, $0.46{\pm}0.14$ and $1.10{\pm}0.24 ng.ml^{-1}$, respectively. $17{\alpha}$-Oestradiol was detected in 16 out of 18 samples of bovine aqueous humour and vitreous humour and the mean $({\pm}SEM)$ concentrations were $0.30{\pm}0.10$ and $0.08{\pm}0.02 ng.ml^{-1}$, respectively. The mean $({\pm}SEM)$ concentration of 17.betha.-oestradiol in aqueous humour (n=7) and vitreous homour (n=11) $0.83{\pm}0.26 ng ml^{-1}$ and $0.39{\pm}0.09 ng ml^-1$, respectively. In retina the concentrations of both steroids were below the detection limit.

Early diagnoses of pregnancy for animal such as swine and bovine is extremely important to increase income of a farmhouse and for the management of farm. For the development of immunoasaay system of pregnancy in swine, we report a competitive heterologous enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) for the direct measurement of oestrone sulfate (E1S) in diluted urine using anti-E1G (glucuronide) monoclonal antibody which cross react with ElS. The principle of assay was based on the typical solid-phase competitive ELISA methods using E1G-HRP (horseradish peroxidase) as a tracer and E1S for standard. The method had a reasonable sensitivity for the detection of E1S with 0.15 ng/ml as a detection limit. The intra-assay and inter-assay precisions were raging coefficient of from 8.50~9.67% and 8.50~9.87%, respectively, which were quite acceptable. In a field trial with a group 37 sows (18 non-pregnancy and 19 pregnancy sows) after day 29~30 post service, the concentration of E1S were determined to be below 30 ng/ml in all non-pregnancy group and over 48 ng/ml in pregnancy group except one sample. The method described here, heterologous ELISA for the measurement of E1S in urine is good enough for monitoring the early pregnancy test of swine.

여성의 난소기능은 뇨중 Oestrone-3-glucuronide를 간편한 solid-phase 의 화학발광성 면역학적 측정법 (Chemiluminescence Imrnunoassay(CIA) 에 의하여 그 기능이 탐지될 수 있다. Oestrone-3-g1ucuronyl-6-bovine serum albumine에 대한 antiserum의 IgG fraction은 polystyrene 실험관벽에 흡착시켰으며, 항원으로서는 est r one-3- gl ucuronyI-6-aminoethyl-ethyl-isoluminol 을 항원 (antigen) 에 labeI 시킨 것이다. 시험 대상물인 뇨는 매일아침뇨(early morning urine) 을 희석 (1:1000 V/V)한 후 100mcl 를 취하여 이를 각기 이중분석액으로 택하였다. 시험관 내에서 결합반응 (1 hour at $4^{\circ}C)이 일어난 후에는 시험관내의 액체를 전부 흡입 폐기시켰으며, 항체반응이 일어난 후 ( antibody-bound fraction )에는 완충액 (400mcl)으로 한번 세척시켰다. 그후 염화수산화물(2N , 200mcl)을 가지고 $22^{\circ}C$에 60 분간 방치 혼합케 한 후 효소(microperoxidase) 와 과산화수소를 가하면서 산화작용에서 발생되는 발광양을 10초동안 측정하여 그 결과를 분석하였다. 위에 기술한 분석방법을 평가하면 다음과 같은 결론을 얻었다. Calibration curve sensitivity$3.12{\pm}0.75$ PG/tube ($mean{\pm}SD$)였고, lntra-assay precision(CV%) 9.52 (20 replicates;$38.4{\pm}3.66$nmol/1) 와 8.81 (15 replicates; $102.4{\pm}8.82$nmol/1)였다. Inter-assay precision(CV%) 은 11.9 (mean of 4 pools-7.03, 23.16, 52.11 과 117.53 nmol/1)로 2개월 동안에 걸쳐 시행되었고, 평균 비이어스(mean bias)는 -0.78 로 28에서 448 nmol 범위로서 매일아침 "뇨"의 차이분(different aliquots)은 좋은 결과를 얻었다. 건강한 여성으로부터 채취된 뇨중 Oestrone-3-glucuronide 의 농도(nmol/1)를 보면 월경주기의 여포기와 배난기 및 황체기에 있어서 각기 $40.2{\pm}9.9$ , $102.3{\pm}39.4$와 $84.3{\pm}13.3$nmol/1였다. 이와같은 결과는 동일한 검사뇨를 방사면역학적 방법(RIA)으로 측정 (6 menstrual cycle)한 결과와 유사한 측정치를 얻으므로서 간편하고 진보된 좋은 방법중의 하나라고 사료되는바이다.

Various early pregnancy diagnostic methods have been developed in order to improve the reproductive efficiency in cow, mare, mule, sow, sheep, goat, dog, cat, rabbit, buffalo, camel, elephant, monkey, deer, lion, coipus and guinea pig. These methods include abdominal swelling, abdominal palpation, esturs cylce detection, Lupin test, gonadotropin assay, colostrum injection test, sperm motility assessment, cervical mucus viscosity test, Kaber chromagens method, estrogen test, A Scheim-Zond다 test, spectrophotometric detection of estrogen in urine and feces, boric acid crystraline formation test in urine, oxytocin injection test, diamino-oxidase test, PMSG HA test, behaviour test, Simolus iodine detection test, detection of tryptophane in urine, x-ray method, Cuboni and Lunaas method, vaginal biopsy method, Friedmann Schneider diagnostic method, electrode method, barium chloride detection method, ECG, Doptone method, ultrasound method, ultrasound scanning method, LDH method, rectal palpation method, CL palpation method, radioautography, serum creatine test, serum globulin test, chlormadine method, CAP method, Medata Do, pp.ers method, body fluid test, Plasma oCS detection method, ERIA, LHRH method, negative latex cogulation test and oestrone sulphate detection method. The most reliable methods with high a, pp.icability to farm animals such as sheep, mare, sow and cow are rectal palpation, ultrasound method and hormonal assay in blood and milk. However, they require complicated laboratory works for the early diagnosis of pregnancy and in most cases, the simple and economical methods which are described up to now need a long period of time after conception. Generally, it is possible to detect pregnancy after one estrus cycle, even though it varies depending on the species of animals. For improvement of the reproductive efficiency, it is required to develop a more accurate, economical, simple and early detectable method. It is anticipated that the result of a study on the detection method of EPF(early pregnancy factor) would be a, pp.icable to various animals within 6 hours after conception.
