To examine this body of work, a meta-analysis was conducted of 25 studies that, in aggregate, report 57 valuations for GM food. Findings indicate as much as 89% of the variation in existing value estimates for genetically modified food can be explained by an econometric model that controls for (a) the characteristics of the sample of consumers studied, (b) the method for eliciting consumers' valuation, and (c) characteristics of the food being valued. Each of these factors has a statistically significant effect on estimated premiums for non-GM food. Results of this study effectively summarize the extant literature on consumer demand for genetically modified food and permit the creation of some stylized facts that are not conditional on the results of one particular study.

Diabetes mellitus is a category of metabolic hyperglycemia disorders caused by insufficient body production or pancreatic action. In addition to hyperglycemia, a number of other factors are also important for pathogenesis, such as Hyperlipidemics and cortisol oxidative. Forty five mature male rats used in this study, these were divided into 3 groups, Control group(G1) : gavage distilled water, Group2(G2): injection intraperitoneally with Alloxan150 mg/kg bw for two weeks and Group3(G3): injection intraperitoneally with Alloxan 150mg/kg bw for twenty four days. Blood samples taken from all groups estimation of Peroxynitrate, GSH, CAT, and SOD concentrations%. The findings revealed a significant improvement in diabetic classes in glucose (p<0.05) and peroxynitrate relative to control (G1). Diabetic concentrations of (G2, G3) re...
