Abstract:
Mandelic acid(MA). the hydrolysate of a compound extracted from the leaves of prunus Persica B, possesses a strong spermicidal effect in vitro. In this experiment. the International Planned Parenthood Federation screening method for spermicides was used. Dilutions of MA, between 0.8mg/ml and 3.3mg/ml, totally immobilized human spermatozoa in less than 1 min. When the lowest spermicidal concentrotions of MA and boric acid against human spermatozoa were compared, it was found that MA was 40 times more potent than boric acid.
