Abstract

Morus alba extract(MAE) was tested for its ability to inhibit alloxan induced lipidperoxidation. Lipid peroxide contents in serum, liver, kidney and heart were measured by the TBA method. ICR mice receiving alloxan at a dose of 6mg/kg intraperitoneally after a 24hrs starvation showed significantly increased lipid peroxide contents as compared to untreated control. Lipid peroxide contents in serum, liver, kidney of alloxan-diabetic mice were decreased by the treatment of MAE at the dose of 50mg/kg, 100mg/kg for 7 days.
