Summary/DiscussionThe intention of our study was to validate whether or not LPS had a significant effect on the inflammation protein Inflammotin. Two experiments where conducted: one experiments used rats as a testing group, while another experiment used humans as a testing group. Experiment 1 (humans): In this experiment, LPS was given to humans in increments of 0mg, 5mg, 10mg, and 15mg. We noticed that there was an exponential increased in LPS and protein levels. As the dosage of LPS increased, the protein level of the test subjects also increased (particularly between the dosages of 10mg and 15mg of LPS). After gathering data and performing an ANOVA test followed by a Bonferroni Correction, we discovered that all of our results are statistically significant as all treatment groups had a p-value less than 0.05. Because each value has statistical significance, our lab group concluded that the increase in human protein levels is directly related to an increase in dosage of LPS. Experiment 2 (rats): When testing rats with LPS dosages of 0mg and 10mg, our data indicated that there was a minor increase in protein levels and LPS dosage. However, we performed a t-test and upon further inspection discovered that the information gathered is not statistically significant as the p-value is greater than 0.05. From this information, our group concluded that the LPS drug did not have a correlation with the protein levels of rats.
