Human adrenal H295R cells are applied according to the validated OECD test guideline 456 to identify potential endocrine disrupting chemicals. Testosterone and estradiol production serves as read-out although these are not steroids typically produced by the adrenals. The current study attempted to optimize conditions for using H295R cells to detect chemicals disturbing the synthesis of key adrenal steroids. Culture supernatants of H295R cells were analysed by LC-MS-based stero...
