Anti-diabetic potential of peptide from P. niruri reveals through carbohydrate hydrolyzing enzyme inhibition assay

Herb Phyllanthus niruri (P. niruri) is known to have various pharmacological functions including anti-diabetic properties. In this research, protein extracts from different plant parts (leave, fruit and stem) of P. niruri were investigated for their anti-diabetic potential through α-amylase and α-...
