Volume : I, Issue : VI, July - 2011 Antifertility potential of Abrus precatorius against male albino mice R.A. Morey & A.J Khandagle DOI : 10.9780/22307850, Published By : Laxmi Book Publication Abstract : The effect of aqueous seed extract of Abrus precatorius on reproduction was
studied in male albino mice. The study was divided into three groups of six
animals each. The first group (I) received distilled water and served as control. The
second and third group (II & III) of animals were administered the aqueous seed
extract daily at 250mg/kg body weight and 300mg/kg body weight respectively for
30 days. A dose related reduction in testicular sperm count and the motility were
observed. The result showed thatAbrus precatorius has effect on male reproduction
affecting the male reproductive system. Keywords : Article : Cite This Article : R.A. Morey & A.J Khandagle, (2011). Antifertility potential of Abrus precatorius against male albino mice.
