Scatchard analysis of saturation isotherms of [125I]-iodopindolol was used to characterize beta-adrenoceptor density (Bmax) and affinity constant (Kd) in female and male hamster Harderian glands. Single-point experiments were also completed in intact females, intact males, and castrated or superior
