The reproductibility, the experimental and statistical procedures of FSH and LH bioassays are studied. The estrogen pretreatment of animals increases, considerably the responsiveness and reliability of the LH bioassays. FSH levels have been determined, by the methods for parallel line assays, in the pituitary gland of normal rats and three days or seventeen days orchiectomized rats.
