IN VIVO METABOLISM OF STEROID HORMONES BY SOCKEYE SALMON: (A) IMPAIRED HORMONE CLEARANCE IN MATURE AND SPAWNED PACIFIC SALMON (O. NERKA) (B) PRECURSORS OF 11-KETOTESTOSTERONE
Intra-arterially injected cortisone-4-C 14 and cortisol-4-C 14 were cleared from the plasma of sexually mature and spawned sockeye salmon (O. nerka) at a much slower rate than from the plasma of immature sockeye and spawned Atlantic salmon (S. salar).
