Ovine placental tissue has been incubated with [4-14C]androstenedione and [1,2-3H2]-epitestosterone for 10, 30, 60, and 120 min. The subsequent radioactive content of the substrates and metabolites has been evaluated after each period of incubation and plotted against time. The rate of interconversion for the two substrates was examined as well as the formation of estrone, and the two epimers of estradiol. The incorporation of both labels into water soluble material was noteworthy whilst the formation of estrone sulfate from both substrates was considered of particular interest.
