  • Published : 2002.10.01

Abstract

Hypoglycemic effect of GRA was examined in multiple low dose(MLD) streptozotocin(STZ)-induced diabetic rats with regard to time of administration. Experimental methods: 20 mg/kg of STZ in 100 mM citrate buffer(pH 4.5) was injected intraperitoneally for 5 consecutive days. In co-treatment groups, GRA was administered intraperitoneally for 3 weeks at dose of 150 or 300 kg/kg. (omitted)
