The double antibody radioimmunoassay procedure of Niswender et al. (1968) has been validated for the spotted skunk, demonstrating the precision, sensitivity, and specificity of the method of assay as formulated by Midgley et al. (1969). Pituitary responsiveness during the prolonged preimplantation period exhibited by the skunk was investigated by injecting (im) a submaximal dosage of purified synthetic luteinizing hormone-releasing hormone (400 ng/0.2 ml acidified saline) once each month to pregnant skunks (N = 4-7) in February, March, and April (8, 4, and 1 wk prior to implantation, respectively). A preinjection blood sample was drawn (time T = 0) via jugular cannula and subsequen
