Dr Moudgals work on the elucidation of gonadotropin action using immunological methods has been of a pioneering nature. The unfolding of LH binding to LH receptors in the target cell and the biochemical reactions elicited is of significance in exploring the molecular mechanism of action of the hormone concerned. He has conducted systematic studies on follicular maturation and the role of FSH and LH in this. The extensive work done by Prof. Moudgals school on reproductive endocrinology based on his findings in experimental animals has provided a possible approach for devising fertility control processes by passive immunization technique.
