low fats. This study aimed at the evaluation of effect of animal fats on the diabetic rats.
Material and methods: This study was performed on forty eight albino rats (their body weight was 190 ± 10
grams) divided equally into four groups. Two groups (III & IV) were given intravenous streptozotocin in a concentration
