	C&EN: SCIENCE & TECHNOLOGY - DESIGNER STEROID ROCKS SPORTS WORLD
		That changed with the official announcement of the identification of THG and the development of a test method to screen urine samples for it, which altogether is being hailed by sports-governing authorities as a milestone in the 40-year history of international antidoping efforts.
		THG is thought to be derived from gestrinone, a synthetic steroid used to treat gynecological disorders.
		THG also is structurally similar to trenbolone, a synthetic steroid that is used by bodybuilders and by U.S. ranchers in combination with estradiol to bulk up cattle.

	THG
		THG is an anabolic steroid used, illicitly, to build muscle mass.
		THG actually was derived by some simple chemical modifications of two well-known — and athletically banned — synthetic steroids, called trenbolone and gestrinone.
		Although purveyors of THG may represent it as a dietary supplement, in fact it does not meet the dietary supplement definition, according to the FDA in a statement on October 27, 2003.

		There was barely anything left in the syringe, but scientists at the lab were able to establish the molecular fingerprint of the substance it had contained, and were then able to replicate it.
