PRINCIPLES OF THE BIOMEDICAL SCIENCES (PBS)

IN CLASS:
- Substitute takes attendance
- Take out your 2.1.1 Activity handout (the diabetes lab)
- Sit with your lab team and have at least one person take out a smart phone or other Internet-enabled device;
- Find the picture below of the white tray that looks like the experiment you performed on Friday
- (3) Click on the image to open a larger version and then zoom in to see the different wells and the labels;
- The labels with the units of "mg/dL" are for blood glucose concentrations, and the labels with the units of "pmol/L" are for insulin concentration.
- Use the chart and your own test results to estimate the concentrations at the five different times (0 minutes, 30 minutes, 60 minutes, 90 minutes, and 120 minutes) of the blood glucose of each patient and use these numbers to complete your data table in both your notebook and your activity handout.
- Now do the same for the insulin test results (determine the concentrations by matching the colors of your results to the colors in the labeled photo below) and record these numbers in a second data table that you create in your lab notebook (modeled after the table you created for the glucose data).
- Use your data to create two graphs in your lab notebook: a triple line graph showing the changes in blood glucose levels of the three patients, and a second triple line graph showing the insulin changes for the three patients over the 2 hour period they were monitored. Use a different color for each patient. HINT: when graphing, the independent variable goes on the X axis--the independent variable in this experiment was the time at which the blood samples were taken!
- Finish the rest of the 2.1.1 handout tasks and then answer the conclusion questions.
HOMEWORK:
- Finish your lab graphs, final tasks described at the end of the 2.1.1 handout, and conclusion questions
