Hypoglycemic effect of Prunus amygdalus seeds in albino rabbits.
On administration of 2.5 g almond seed and its proportionate fractions, viz. 1.22 g defatted seed and 1.28 g oil to three groups of albino rabbits, they showed a definite hypoglycemic action during a two months study. The active factor seems to be a non oil fraction which is only partly soluble in ethyl ether.
