OUR TEAM Name: Neema Jamali Name: Riddhi Rohit Name: Carter Hill Name: student Role(s) Name: student Role(s) Name: student Role(s) LAB 1 WRITE-UP Independent and Dependent Variables Independent Variable: Dosage of lipopolysaccharide Dependent Variable: Inflammatory response of the test subjects. Experimental Design Groups We will have 5 separate groups of eight individuals receiving incrementally decreasing dosages by 2mg of Lipopolysachcharides. (10mg, 8mg, 6mg, 4mg, 2mg) Age 18-25 Number of subjects per group There will be 8 subjects per group in order to achieve a viable result, while staying within our limited budget. (Add details about your experimental design) Subject Selection The subjects will be selected by going to multiple college campus in the Phoenix area including technical schools and community colleges. College students are the perfect subjects for a graduate student low on cash and their health can handle the induced inflammation better than that of the elderly. Sources of Error and Bias A potential source of error would be if the subjects already had a pre existing inflamation condition. This can be controlled by having each subject take a background test.(What are some of the potential sources of error or biases that could affect your results and how would you control for them?)
