Effect of Artemisia santonicum L. on blood glucose in normal and alloxan-induced diabetic rabbits
Özet
The hypoglycaemic effect of panicles of Artemisia santonicum L. in normal and alloxan-induced diabetic rabbits was investigated. Blood glucose levels were determined after oral administration of an aqueous extract of Artemisia santonicum L. In normal and diabetic rabbits, 2 mL/kg (0.42 g/kg) aqueous extract significantly (p < 0.01) reduced blood glucose levels 6 h after administration, which was consistent and time-dependent.
