Abstract: Objective:To discuss total momordicosides lowering blood glucose on rats.Method:Blood glucose value,SOD activity in serum,content of MDA in serum were measured respectively in rats which had been given 30,60,120 mg/kg bw respectively,for 30 days.Results:The total momordicosides could evidently reduce blood glucose value and resume anti-oxidation,and the effect of the total momordicosides at high dose was the best.

Key words: bitter melon, total saponins, lowering blood glucose, anti-oxidation
