This study was carried out to understand the effects of Bambusae Caulis in Liquamen manufactured by different production facilities on blood glucose of the mice induced with streptozotocin. Filtered Bambusae Caulis in Liquamen manufactured by two different facilitiesproduction process were used. The physiochemical properties of filtered Bambusae Caulis in Liquamen manufactured by two different facilities(300L×300W×400H and 700L×700W×800H electric furnace) were compared. Furthermore, the effects of filtered Bambusae Caulis in Liquamen were observed in terms of blood glucose, BUN and AL T in the mice induced with streptozotocin. The results were as follows : The pH value was the highest in L-BCL(E)B(pH 2.83) between manufactured by two different facilities. The L-BCL(E)B which observed low values of Hunter's color values show decreased concentration of methanol and phenolic compounds. The blood glucose contents was decreased in the experimental groups compared with the control. The amount of BUN and ALT did not show any differences between control and experimental group.

This study was carried out to understand the physiological properties and the effects of Bambusae Caulis in Liquamen manufactured by three different production process on blood glucose of the mice induced with streptozotocin. Original, filtered and refined Bambusae Caulis in Liquamen manufactured by three different production process were used. The physiochemical properties of original, filtered and refined Bambusae Caulis in Liquamen manufactured by three different production process were compared. Furthermore, the effects of original, filtered and refined Bambusae Caulis in Liquamen were observed in terms of blood glucose, BUN, ALT in the mice induced with streptozotocin. The results were as follows : The range of the pH manufactured by three different production processes was $2.28{\sim}3.17$ Concentration of methanol and phenolic compounds which are related to toxicity were lowest in filtered Bambusae Caulis in Liquamen(L-BCL [E] B) manufactured by using electric furnace at $215{\circ}C$ during 8.10/hour. The blood glucose contents was decreased in the experimental groups compared with the control. The amount of BUN and ALT did not show any differences between control and experimental group.
