A novel combined approach to detect androgenic activities with yeast based assays in Schizosaccharomyces pombe and Saccharomyces cerevisiae

In summary, the novel androgen-sensitive yeast assays have a large potential for various applications, e.g. as pre-screening in doping analysis or cattle feeding. A combination of both assays, exploiting these two phylogenetic very different yeasts, allows detection of the activity of a wide range of androgenic substances.
