In the present study the methanolic extract of corn silk was evaluated for antidiabetic activity. The antidiabetic activity was studied using the glucose uptake by isolated rat hemi-diaphragm using in-vitro model. Corn silk increased the uptake of glucose by isolated rat hemidiaphragm significantly...
