Description 277-279
Seedling, seedling parts
and callus cultures of onion
were tested for
their antidiabetic activity
by feeding the tissue-extracts to diabetic
rats. The results indicated much higher antidiabetic activity in callus
cultures as compared to natural bulbs of onion. These results may be of pharmaceutical
significance since
the callus can be
used as an alternative source for the isolation of  antidiabetic
compounds.
