Abstract
Chinese medicinal prescriptions were screened for their effects on alpha-amylase activity in mouse plasma. Daio-kanzo-to, Hange-koboku-to, Saiko-ka-ryukotsu-borei-to, Saiko-keishi-kankyo-to and Mao-to changed the activity in isolated mouse plasma greatly and concentration dependently. However, no prescription influenced the elevation of postprandial blood glucose.
