Abstract
The effect ofAframomum Melegueta on glucose level was investigated in male albino rats. The rats were induced with Aloxan and the glucose levels were monitored for 24hours. In order to determine the effect Aframomum Melegueta, the rats were induced with 0.01mg/kg and 0.1mg/kg of both the test and standard preparation. The change in glucose level was recorded. The relative potency (p) is defined as the ratio of a dose of the test preparation to such a dose of the standard preparation that produces the same average response. The mean square for preparations in this assay was very large compares to the mean square for error. This large difference in mean responses will decrease the precision of potency estimation. The estimated relative potency R = 0.00 was contrary to p > 0
