The ethanolic extract of the leaves of E. dysenterica (EEC) was evaluated for its antioxidant activity and was then tested for toxicity administered to both the control group and the treated group (2000 mg/kg EEC). For an experimental model of diabetes, animals were divided into experimental groups: a negative control treated with saline, a group treated with streptozotocin (STZ) combined with saline, a group treated with STZ combined with metformin and the others treated with EEC at doses of 25, 50 and 100 mg/kg of body weight (21 days).

The present study has been focused on determination of various constituents of carbohydrate’s metabolism during pupal-adult transition stage in the silk worm, Bombyx mori. Vth instar larvae of the silkworm, Bombyx mori (DFLs), obtained from the local grainages were maintained under laboratory conditions of 260C-280 C temperature range according to the guidelines of Krishnaswamy (1978).The pupae and adult male & female moths were sacrificed on selected days viz.1st, 3rd, 5th, 7thand 9thdays and two selected tissues such as fat body and haemolymph were collectedand stored at -700C.

Peritoneal Tuberculosis is a rare extra-pulmonary presentation of tuberculosis. It caused by strains of mycobacterium, usually mycobacterium tuberculosis. Even though TB has been declining in incidence in the developing country like SriLanka, it remains a main problem in endemic areas of the developing world. A wide spectrum of clinical presentation could be observed in peritoneal tuberculosis, making it a huge diagnostic challenge. Here we reported a case of a young boy was investigated for chronic diarrhea, ultimately diagnosed as peritoneal tuberculosis.
