This study was conducted in two seasons 2002 - 2003 at Maryout Research Station, Alexandria Governorate, to study the effect of ammonium sulfate at 1000 ppm and 2000 ppm foliar spray plus three levels of manganese sulfate (0, 50, 100 ppm) on Ambrosia maritima L. plants. The results showed a significant increase in, plant height, fresh and dry weights per plant and herbage yield per feddan, as well as the active ingredients (ambrosin and damsin) as a result of using 2000 ppm ammonium sulfate plus 100 ppm manganese sulfate. An aqueous and ethanolic extracts of Ambrosia maritima L herb were tested for its effect on the glucose level in streptozotocin induced diabetic rats. The extracts showed a highly significant hypoglycemic effect on the experimental animals, after ten days. All the diabetic rats exhibited normal glucose level and ALT, AST and alkaline phosphatase enzymes returned to normal values after the treatments. The observed changes in glucose and enzyme levels in serum, suggest that the Ambrosia maritima L. herb extracts used in this study may represent an effective treatment for streptozotochin induced diabetes mellitus in rats.
