No. of days →	0	14	28
Group I	83.83 ± 2.701	82.5 ± 3.757	85.66 ± 2.929
Group II	82.83 ± 0.401	78.5 ± 0.619^α*	74.16 ± 0.542^α*
Group III	301.5 ± 9.570	299.16 ± 31.836^γ**	310.83 ± 11.652^γ**
Group IV	304.00 ± 9.292	177.93 ± 7.923^γr	92.50 ± 13.200^γr

The values represent as Mean ± SEM for 6 rats each. The results are expressed in mg/dl. α = (P > 0.05), β = (P < 0.05), γ = (P < 0.01) represents comparison of 0 day reading of each group with 14 and 28 days. * = (P > 0.05), ** = (P < 0.05), *** = (P < 0.01) represents comparison of Group-III with Group-I. ^p = P > 0.05), ^q = (P < 0.05), ^r = (P < 0.01) compared Group IV with Group III. Group-I Normal Control; Group-II Normal treated (AEMC); Group-III Diabetic control; Group-IV diabetic treated (AEMC)
