Figure 3

(a) In vitro α-amylase inhibitory activity of petroleum ether, methanol, and acetone extracts of Turbinaria ornata. Absorbance was measured at 540 nm. (b) In vitro α-glucosidase inhibitory activity of petroleum ether, methanol, and acetone extracts of Turbinaria ornata, acarbose is used as positive control and absorbance was measured at 405 nm. Values are means ± SD ( ) ( considered significant).
