Analyses and profiling of extract and fractions of neglected weed mimosa pudica Linn. traditionally used in Southeast Asia to treat diabetes

Mimosa pudica Linn. var. hispida Bren. (Family: Fabaceae) a neglected weed has been studied for its antidiabetic potential to propose alternative medicinal source against the global threat of diabetes mellitus. This study aimed to investigate in vitro inhibitory activity against diabetic enzymes (...

This study aimed to investigate in vitro inhibitory activity against diabetic enzymes (i.e. α-amylase & α-glucosidase) and three anti-oxidant assays were conducted to evaluate anti-diabetic potential of M. pudica’s methanol extract (MeOHi) and its sub-fractions (Hexanef, EtOAcf, Acetonef and MeOHf).
