A chemical method for the determination of oestriol, oestrone and oestradiol in human urine.

We should like to thank Dr R. Y. Thomson and Mr R. Logan for their assistance in some of these experiments, Mr A. J. Taylor for technical assistance and Dr J. A. Roper of the Department of Genetics in this University for help in the radiation experiments. We are also indebted to Dr A. C. White of the Wellcome Physiology Research Laboratories for assistance in the supply of venom. The expenses of this work were defrayed from a grant to one of us (J.N.D.) from the Medical Research Council, and by a grant from the Rankin Fund of the University of Glasgow.
