Abstract
Objective:
To study the hypoglycemic effect of the total flavonoids in Leucaena seeds(TF).
Method:
Experimental observation was performed by using various diabetic mice induced by alloxan, adrenalin, etc.
Result:
TF could significantly lower the blood glucose levels in Alloxan model mice, adrenalin model mice and hyperglycemic mice, while had no hypoglycemic effect on the normal mice.
Conclusion:
The total flavonoids in Leucaena seeds has hypoglycemic effect in diabetic model mice.
