Profile of gonadotropin secretion in male and female rats determined in the tail-tip blood by ultrasensitive ELISA. [PDF]
Abstract There is a need for accurate and less invasive methods of hormonal measurements. Here, we longitudinally determined luteinizing hormone (LH) and follicle‐stimulating hormone (FSH) secretion measured in the tail‐tip blood of male and female rats by ultrasensitive enzyme‐linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA).
