Chemical composition and anti-diabetic properties of Jatropha curcas leaves extract on alloxan induced diabetic wistar rats

Abstract: This study evaluates the chemical composition and anti-diabetic properties of fresh and shade driedJatropha curcas aqueous leaves extracts (JCLE) on alloxan induced diabetic female wistar rats. Seven (7) kg of J. curcas leaves were pulverized and aqueous extracts produced. Thirty five (35) mature female rats were grouped into seven of five animals per group according to their body weights. Blood samples were collected for baseline data before inducing diabetes. Various groups of rats were fed graded doses (100… Show more

“…Many of the traditional Indian medicinal plants are found to have anti diabetic potential (Arumugam, et al, 2013). Number of active molecules have been evaluated for treating hyperglycemia and validated for anti diabetic properties (Nwamarah, et al, 2015) (Noor, et al, 2013). In the present research work the plant selected is HZ.…”
