Corn silk is a long, weak, and shiny fibers at the top of corn's ear (1). Traditionally, it is used for making tea as a healthy and medical drink in Asian communities especially in China (2). Recently, corn silk becomes very important in drugs development, because of its bioactive constituents which include oxidant prevention agent limits, anti-diabetic activity anti-proliferative effects diuretic activity anticoagulant activity, antifungal, anti-fatigue, and treating obesity (3).
