Analytical method for diethylstibestrol (DES) and zeranol, which are growth promoters, in muscle foods was studied. Through selected ion monitoring analysis by GC-MSD for hormones, $M^+$ 412, 420, 416, and 433 for DES, $D_8DES$, ${\beta}-estradiol$, and zeranol, respectively, were selected for quantitative analysis. Removal of interferences in meat was done by passing the meat through 1 cc of strong anion exchanges resin, Dowex $2{\times}8$, 400 mesh, whereby the recoveries of DES and zeranol were achieved. Recoveries of DES and zeranol were ranged from 85 to 110%, and 75 to 110%, respectively, in meat using $D_8DES$ as an internal standard, while were 82 to 105%, and 65 to 120%, respectively, using ${\beta}-estradiol$ as an internal standard. These results show that both $D_8DES$ and ${\beta}-estradiol$ can be adopted as the internal standard for the analysis of DES and zeranol in muscle foods. Limits of detection of DES and zeranol were 0.05 and 1.0 ng/g, and limits of quantitation were 0.5 and 1.0 ng/g, respectively. The results of this study revealed no DES and zeranol were present in 14 samples of beefs, porks, ducks, chickens, mutiplicated flat fish, and trout.

The aims of present study were to compare the effects of in utero exposure to diethylstibestrol (DES), di(n-butyl)phthalate (DBP) and flutamide on the development of reproductive organs and to investigate the specific mechanisms of these abnormalities in the male reproductive system.During gestation days 10-19, pregnant Sparague-Dawley (SD) female rats were administered orally with corn oil (control), DES (25, 50, or 100 ${\mu}$/kg/day), (omitted)
