ABOUT THIS PRODUCT:


Over 380 million people worldwide are afflicted by diabetes mellitus, a chronic disease that leads to high blood sugar. Due to genetic predisposition and high-calorie, low-activity lifestyles, that number continues to grow. Without early detection and treatment of diabetes, severe medical complications can occur. In this simulation, students will diagnose diabetes in three patients using the urine glucose test and Enzyme-linked Immunosorbent Assay (ELISA).

• Learn about human metabolism, diabetes, and diabetes detection
• Dive into medical biotechnology with this three-part experiment
• Review case histories, conduct a simulated urine glucose test, and complete a simulated ELISA on three patients
• Experiment replicates procedures used to diagnose diabetes and distinguish between Type I and II
