Development of a quantitative method for the simultaneous analysis of the boar taint compounds androstenone, skatole and indole in porcine serum and plasma by means of ultra-high performance liquid chromatography coupled to high resolution mass spectromet

Correlations between serum/plasma and fat levels of the boar taint compounds were positive for skatole (rserum = 0.39 and rplasma = 0.84) and androstenone (rserum = 0.73-0.78 and rplasma = 0.32-0.80).
