Abstract:
Metahnolic extract of Mengifera indica L. root produces in vitro antispermogenic activity. In vitro antispermogenic activity of six chromatographic fractions obtained from metahnolic extract of Mengifera indica L. root also performed. Three (M1, M2, M6) out of six fractions showed antispermogenic activity. Among them fraction M6 showed most potent effect observed by percentage decrease in motility. Structure elucidation of M6 showed presence of a glycoside named 1-heptyl-(1-phenyl)-3-xylose benzoate, thus isolated glycoside may responsible for its antispermogenic activity.
