EFFECT OF ESSENTIAL OIL OF CITRUS RETICULATA ON BLOOD GLUCOSE AND LIPID PROFILE IN ALLOXAN INDUCED DIABETIC RATS
Journal Title: International Journal of Pharmaceutical Applications - Year 2010, Vol 1, Issue 1
Abstract
In the present study, the essential oil of Citrus reticulata is investigated for anti-diabetic activity. The present study was planned to elucidate hypoglycemic effect of essential oil of Citrus reticulata and its interaction with glibenclamide in hyperglycemic rats. Alloxan induced hyperglycemic male wistar rats were orally administered, the essential oil alone and GLB 0.9mg/kg for 30 days. Blood glucose was estimated along with lipid levels on 31st day by Kit method. The essential oil of Citrus reticulata exhibited significant hypoglycemic and hypolipidemic effect in hyperglycemic rats.
