Uses
(3α,5β,20S)-Pregnane-3,20-diol Diacetate is the end product or metabolite of progesterone in man, monkey and rabbit. Also, it is an intermediate used in the synthesis of Pregnanediol 3α-O-β-D-Glucuronide (P705140), which is the glucuronide conjugate of Pregnanediol (P705130). Levels of Pregnanediol 3α-O-β-D-Glucuronide can be used to monitor the reproductive status of dairy cows. 3α-O-β-D-Glucuronide can be used (as an alternative to creatine) as a reference to adjust other hormonal markers in study of urinary hormonal profiles in the human menstrual cycle.
