OUR TEAMLAB 1 WRITE-UPIndependent and Dependent VariablesIndependent Variable: Dosage of lipopolysaccharide
Experimental DesignGroups Number of subjects per group
Subject SelectionThe subjects will be selected by going to multiple college campus in the Phoenix area including technical schools and community colleges. The subjects will be both male and female students. College students are the perfect subjects for a graduate student low on cash and their health can handle the induced inflammation better than of the elderly.
Sources of Error and BiasA potential source of error would be if the subjects already had a pre-existing inflammatory condition. This can be controlled by having each subject take a background test. Another error may be related to the high level of health that most college students possess and their high percentage of physical activity compared to that of most elderly citizens.
