The samples were then divided into four groups according to the quality and quantity of the sperm. The propranolol (D,L-P) and its isomers including the Dextko-propranolol (D-P) and LevoAnpropranolol (L-P) solution of various concentrations were tested. SPermicidal e/fect at various intervals was observed by microscopy, and then compared to the Nonoxynol (NP-9) as a reference spermicide.The results showed that the mean values of lowest effective spermicidal concentration of D,L-P, D-P and L-P within twenty seconds were 1.00±0.63,1.10±0.62 and 0.91 ±0.54 (mg/ml) respectively, there was no signijicant difference among them (P>0.05), but they were signilicantly different from that of NP-9 (P<0.001). It is well known that the D- P has no significant beta- adrenoceptor blocking activity, so the D-P might be a new promising vaginal contraceptive drug.展开更多
