CHAPTER 1 INTRODUCTION 1.1 Diabetes Mellitus: The food we eat is ultimately broken down into the simplest form of sugar, glucose which passes through blood to various cells in the body and provides energy for the functioning of the cells. Excess glucose is stored in the body for future usage by action of two hormones produced in the pancreas namely Insulin and Glucagon. Insulin stores excess glucose for future use and glucagon converts the stored sugar to glucose in case of emergencies [1], thus
