      CHAPTER ONE - [ Total Page(s): 2 ]Fruit and seed extracts have antibacterial activity against Bacillus cereus, Escherischia coli, and Pseudomonas aeuroginosa (Tang et al., 1972; Emeruwa et al., 1982). The juice is used for curing warts, cancer, and tumors. Leaves have beenpoulticed into nervous pains, elephantoid growths (Asolkar et al., 1992). The antihyperglycemic effect of unripe mature fruits and seeds of Carica papaya have also been reported (Olagunja, et al 1995; Adeneye and Olagunja, 2009).Papaya leaves are made into tea ...
