Objective To study the toxic effect of acrylamide (AA) to sperm quality of mice in order to provide scientific data to elucidate the reproductive toxicity of AA.

The mice were treated with AA by gavage,once a day,for 5 consecutive days. The mice were sacrificed on the 14th day after the first administration,the quantity,motility,morphology of sperms were examined. Results The sperm quantity in each AA group reduced significantly (P
