TY - JOUR AU - Finkler, Rita, S. AB - Abstract IN 1929 MARRIAN (1) isolated pregnandiol from human pregnancy urine. Dingemanse, dejongh, Kober and Laqueur (2), and Butenandt (3) per-fected the technic of the extraction and made further researches along these lines. In 1936 and 1937 Venning and Browne et al. (4–10) elaborated a technic of gravimetric determination of sodium pregnandiol glucuronidate and showed that the excretion of this compound is associated with the activity of the corpus luteum, which produces pro-gesterone during the luteal phase of the menstrual cycle and during pregnancy. According to Wilson and Randall (11) the determination of pregnandiol glucuronidate should have a place in the diagnosis of early pregnancy, especially in the presence of a missed period.
