Levels of α-amylase activity in serum of experimental groups of rats. Normal (NC) and Diabetic control (DC). ELC200&400: Ethanol extract from leaves of C. scolymus at doses of 200 and 400 mg/kg per day; A12: Acarbose at dose of 12 mg/kg per day for 28 days. The values are means ±SD (n = 8 for each group). *** p ≤ 0.001 was considered significant compared to control group; #### p ≤ 0.001 was considered significant compared to diabetic rat. £££ p ≤ 0.001, ££ p ≤ 0.01 compared to diabetic rats treated with acarbose
