PMID: 21480767 Abstract Title: The effect of progesterone on the electron emission and degradation of testosterone. Abstract: Based on recent findings that hormones can emit electrons () from their excited singlet state in polar media, it was of importance to study a possible mutual interaction of progesterone (PRG) and testosterone (TES) in this respect. Hormones of highest purity were dissolved in an air-free mixture of 40% triply distilled water and 60% ethanol, because the hormones are unsoluble in water. As energy source for substrate excitation in singlet state served a monochromatic UV-light (254 nm), the emitted electrons were scavenged by chloroethanol, whereby the quantum yield of produced Cl⁻ ions, Q (Cl⁻), is equal to Q(e⁻(aq)). Hormone degradation initiated by the electron emission was studied by HPLC method, using a Zorbax Eclipse XDB-C18 column (150 mm x 4.6 mm, 5 μm). The quantum yield of emitted... - Nana Silvergrim
