This study designed to investigate the blood glusose lowering effect of sericultural products using allozan-induced byperglycemic mice. The administration of sericultural products did not affect body weight between normal mice and alloxan induced hyperglycemic mice. High blood glucose level in alloxan-induced mice group was maintained, during all the experimental period. In the 2-3 weeks, a significant decrease in the blood glucose level was observed in the group treated with sericultural products. Up to 5 weeks, blood glucose level of those group was maintained. Sericultural products treatment group have an activity for glucose tolerance test. Sericultural products showed the blood glucose lowering acivity for loading maltose and sucrose.
