Abstract
⺠N. lappaceum rind, also known as rambutan, has been shown to have anti-hyperglycemic abilities. ⺠Geraniin, an ellagitannin was identified as the major bioactive in N. lappaceum rind. ⺠Rapid isolation and purification of geraniin from the rind of N. lappaceum was established. ⺠Geraniin exhibited alpha glucosidase, alpha amylase and aldol reductase inhibition activity. ⺠It also prevented the formation of advanced glycation end-products (AGE).
