'Progesterone, 17-hydroxyprogesterone and four other 3-keto steroids were determined by high performance liquid chromatography with fluorescence detection. Each steroid was derivatized with 4,4-difluoro-5,7-dimethyl-4-bora-3a,4a-diaza-s-indacene++ +-3- propionohydrazide (BODIPY FL hydrazide) and separated on a Wakosil 5C4 column with acetonitrile-water (7 + 3) as mobile phase. The limits of detection of progesterone, 17-hydroxyprogesterone, ... More
