Abstract
Validation of the ethnobotanical use of the leaves of Artemisia vulgaris Linn Compositae Eucalyptus tereticornis Sm. Myrtaceae Solanum nigrum Linn. Solanaceae and Vitex negundo Linn. Verbenaceae; stems of Nopalea cochinellifera Linn. Salm-Dyck Cactaceae roots of Imperata cylindrica Beauv. Gramineae and dried bark of Syzygium cumini Linn. Skeels Myrtaceae as anti-hyperglycemic agents using the oral glucose tolerance test OGTT showed that only the bark of S. cumini and the leaves of V. negundo and E. tereticornis exhibited anti-hyperglycemic activities when fed simultaneously with glucose at the same dosage of 5 mg / 20 g mouse. The aqueous extracts of Musa sapientum flowers Andropogon citratus leaves Cucumis sativus fruit and Ipomoea aquatica leaves also showed anti-hyperglycemic activity. The flavonoids 2; 4;-Dihydroxy-3; 5;-dimethyl-6;-methoxychalcone its isomeric flavanone 5-0-methyl-4;desmethoxymatteucinol and 2;4; -dihydroxy-6; -methoxy-3; -methylchalcone were isolated as antihyperglycemic compounds from Syzigium samarangense leaves using an OGTT-guided isolation.
