Abstract
Spathodea campanulata stem bark decoction (SCD) has shown hypoglycemic acti vity in mice. It was separated by column chromatography into different frac tions, which were evaluated for their hypoglycemic, anticomplement and anti -MN activities. The most polar fraction exerted by far the most prominent e ffect in different biological models.
