Popis: Abstract Hypoglycemic effect of methanol extract of leaf of Fimbristylis miliacea was examined in mice model. Standard drug glibenclamide reduced fasting blood glucose concentration by 46.69% after 3 h while extract at 400 mg/kg showed 36.92% reduction after same time span. Therefore, it can be concluded that the plant extract is expected to contain phytoconstituent(s) with potential hypoglycemic effect in dextrose-induced hyperglycemic mouse model.
