Abstract

The  terahertz  time-domain  and  Raman  spectra  of steroids  in  the  region  of  0.1-3.5  THz  have  been measured.  Steroids  have  several  intense  and specific  absorption  features  in  the  THz  frequency region. The  features are uniquely determined by a hormone  structure.  This  allows  us  to  analyze steroids  in  complex  samples  such  as pharmaceuticals,  foodstuffs  and  biological  fluids, and in process of the pharmacological and chemical synthesis.
