It is well documented that biologically active components of microalgae can be utilized for treatment of different diseases. This study was conducted to evaluate the antihyperglycemic and antihyperlipidemic activities and weight control of Nannochloropsis oculata microalgae (NOM) in Streptozotocin-induced diabetic male rats.
