متن کاملSearching for Alpha-Glucosidase Inhibitory Activity in Hexane Extracts by some Plants from Kurdistan Province
Objective: Alpha-glucosidase, as a carbohydratase catalyses the liberation of alpha-glucose from the nonreducing end of some carbohydrates from foods in digestive tract. Consequently, retard absorption of glucose by the inhibition of carbohydrate hydrolyzing enzymes is one of the therapeutic approaches to decrease the postprandial hyperglycemia. Recently, a great deal of attention has been pai...
