Abstract: Selected Ion Monitor (SIM) of GC-MS is used to determine the amounts of testosterone (T), epitestosterone(ET) and their ratio in urine.The affection of five β-glucuronidases to the determination of Tlevel has been compared. It is figured out that both the Calf Enzyme (made in China) and the E. Coli(IX-A) from Sigma have strong activities while hydrolyzing the combined T, ETin urine. So they are fit to the determination of Tand ETlevel of urine in doping Control.

Key words: Testosterone, Doping, β-Glucuronidase
