Abstract
It is well known for many years that naturally occurring sex hormones and numerous synthetic analogues are stimulating the biosynthesis of proteins thus being most frequently used as growth-promoting agents in beef, cattle and poultry meat production (1). The range of anabolic compounds applied covers androgens, estrogens and gestagenes, the synthetic stilbene derivatives such as diethylstilbestrol (DES), dienestrol (DIES) and hexestrol (HEX) being the most commonly administered drugs (2). Typical representatives, their origin and the correlation between chemical structure and biochemical activity are presented in fig. 1. Within that frame the arrangement of the synthetic compounds is based on their structural analogy to the corresponding natural steroid hormones with equivalent biochemical properties.
