Abstract:
Glucose-lowering activity of Cassia auriculata L. (Ranawara, Family: Fabaceae) flowers is scientifically proven. However, it has limited use as therapeutic agents due to drawbacks including reduced absorption and stability. This study aimed at optimization and screening of C. auriculata
encapsulated nanoliposomes using high-fat diet fed, streptozotocin induced diabetic Wistar rat model. C. auriculata flowers were extracted using water, ethanol and aqueous ethanol 70% v/v by ultrasonication (40 0C, 40 kHz, 30 min). The dried extracts were encapsulated in nanoliposomes.
