Brief description Synthesis and analysis of equine anabolic steroid metabolites. The Australian Racing Industry has an annual turnover of over $11,000M and is Australia's highest employing industry. Its credibility is dependent upon the enforcement of regulations relating to illicit substances. The aim of the project is to devise testing procedures for illicit drugs in the equine. To achieve this a variety of hydroxylated anabolic steroid equine metabolites are to be synthesised as reference standards and for studies on analytical procedures. These analytical studies will involve production of antibodies, and of the appropriate testing procedures.
