APPLICATIONS
Zeranol is a non-steroidal estrogenic growth stimulant that is used in veterinary medicine and has been used for human. The use for growth promotion in food animals was banned in the EU. An anabolic-estrogenic agent promote cell growth and division, resulting in growth of muscle tissue and sometimes bone size and strength. Testosterone and androgen are examples. Zeranol is also called zearalenol as it is a reduction product of zearalenone, an estrogenic mycotoxin product.
