Summary
Extracts of lucerne with 0.1N HCl prepared and fractionated by the method ofAdler 16 give a filtrate which contains anantigonadal substance. This can be obtained from the extract after precipitation with lead acetate and evaporation. The residue after extraction with cold pyridin contains long needle-crystals insoluble in ethanol, methanol, ether and chloroform. A solution of these crystals injected into rats caused a decrease in weight of the seminal vesicles. In the mouse this substance is without effect.
