    Our analysis utilizes 1 mL urine spiked with 6-alpha-methylprednisolone as internal standard. The samples were extracted with dichlormethane and the extract was washed, evaporated to dryness and analyzed by LC-MS/MS operating in the negative mode after separation on a reversed-phase C18 column. The...
