Abstract

Ricinus communis is a plant whose different parts are used for the preparation of herbal medicines. In current research, the root part of Ricinus communis was used to check its ability for antiglycation. The glycation induces diabetes mellitus. The antiglycation is helpful to retard its effect. It could be proved a good practical way to decrease the diabetes mellitus. All the extracts showed antiglycation activity on 3rd, 7th and 11th days but n-butanol extract gave maximum (88%, 50%, 47% inhibition) activity. The roots of Ricinus communis had shown good antiglycation activity and it could be proved as a good source of herbal medicine.
