Anatomy & Physiology Lab 05: Drug Dosage & Chemotherapy - Durable Manual Students use a leaf disk

Students use a leaf disk assay to measure the rate of photosynthesis and observe oxygen as a product

This kit contains the following products for Vaccination & Immunity

then perform the lab and complete the post‐lab reading & questions before they move on to the next station

Richards Blood sample (Type O)

The background provides links to how the photosynthesis process can be used as a clean energy source to produce medications

Anatomy & Physiology Lab 05: Drug Dosage & Chemotherapy - Durable Manual Students use a leaf diskStudents will test different dosages of a new chemotherapy drug on liver cells. The effectiveness of the liver cells breaking down hydrogen peroxide and producing oxygen is used to measure the efficiency of the drug. This is a very simple set up that uses balloons to capture the oxygen and timing when the balloons stand up to determine adequate oxygen production. Items included in this lab are listed below. Spot plates Plastic pipettes
