Determination of Androgen Bioactivity by an In Vitro Assay During Pubertal Transition in Healthy Boys
Androgen bioactivity was undetectable before pubertal onset but measurable after in most boys, reflecting both the bioassay's lower sensitivity and potential physiological changes in androgen bioactivity during early puberty. Further studies are needed to clarify these observations.
