    Abstract: The present study was aimed to evaluate the protective effect of phloretin on glycoprotein components in serum and tissues of streptozotocin induced diabetic rats. Diabetes was induced in male Wistar rats by a single intraperitoneal injection of STZ (60 mg/kg b.w). Phloretin (25mg and 50mg/kg b.w) was administered orally to diabetic rats for 45 day... Show More
