Testosterone sulfate 

Testosterone sulfate is a Testosterone sulfate with a pyridinium. Testosterone sulfate is the metabolite of Testosterone. Testosterone is the main male sex hormone which determination is useful for assessment of androgen status^[1][2].

Testosterone sulfate is a biomarker for exogenous testosterone intake, however, it needs to undergo hydrolysis (decoupling) to be converted into free testosterone before it can be effectively detected by analytical instruments such as chromatography-mass spectrometry. Enzymatic hydrolysis using an enzyme preparation containing sulfatase is an effective and reliable method for releasing free testosterone for detection^[1].
