Group | Blood glucose (mg/dL) | |||
---|---|---|---|---|
Day 1 | Day 3 | Day 6 | Day 10 | |
Control | 89.6 ± 5.1 | 92 ± 8.6 | 100.4 ± 7.5 | 91 ± 22.9 |
Diabetic | 419.6 ± 49.6a | 442.2 ± 36.7a | 500 ± 3.1a | 500 ± 0a |
Diabetic + CE50 | 462 ± 33.9a | 397.2 ± 61.2a | 465.5 ± 33.3a | 500 ± 0a |
Diabetic + OE50 | 397 ± 10.4ab | 337.8 ± 34.6ab | 372.6 ± 7.5ab | 414.2 ± 62.5ab |
Data are expressed as mean ± standard deviation; n = 5. a: significant difference versus control group; b: versus diabetic group (p ≤ 0.05) in Fisher-LSD test. CE50: crude extract at dose 50 mg/kg; OE50: organic extract at dose 50 mg/kg.
