Values are mean ± SEM (n = 6); *Significant at 5% level, **Significant at 1% level and ^#Not significant
The fluctuations in body weight in different groups are stated in Table 1. There was a significant (p < 0.05) decline in body weight in all alloxan-induced type I diabetic rats compared to the control group within 21 days
