Abstract

The study was aimed at evaluating Antidiabetic activity were evaluated by In vitro amylase inhibitory activity and Glucose uptake in Yeast cells. It was proposed that inhibition of α-amylase and glucose uptake by yeast cell delay the degradation of carbohydrate, which would in turn cause a decrease in the absorption of glucose, as a result the reduction of post pranial blood glucose level elevation. In the present study the ethanol extract inhibit the enzymes namely α-amylase than the aqueous extract of Glochidion ellipticum effectively.

Keywords: Glochidion ellipticum, Antidiabetic activity.
