Abstract
The Carcite type of Corbicula japonica shell powder developed at high temperature 500℃ had improved mal-function of liver in the LEC rat liver disorder model, and restored its function. Additional a new bio-function of the fired shell powder was lately found to lower the blood sugar level in the Type 2 diabetes model mouse (KK/TaJcl). These mice were raised with 2.5% shell powder for a month showed the significant lower level of blood sugar at 81±23mg to that of the control raised without shell powder at 208±86mg (P = .05). Fat globlues deposition and vacuoles formation in the liver were clearly less in the shell powder-fed group compared to those of the control group in histo-pathological inspections. Anti-diabetes efficiency of the Carcite type shell powder prepared at 500℃ 2hrs treatment acquired a blood sugar reduction ability suggesting applicability against the human diabetes patients.
