摘要
Ethanolic extracts of Punica granatum, Mangifera indica, Boerhaavia diffusa, Embelia ribes, Phyllanthus maderaspatensis, and Withania somnifera, were tested for their effect on alpha -amylase activity (in vitro). P. granatum and M. indica were found to exhibit interesting alpha -amylase inhibitory activity. (C) 2001 Elsevier Science B.V. All lights reserved.
