- Wed 1/29: Final Exams Back and Recollect. Start the Immune System. Barrier defenses and phagocytes. Hand out Antibiotic Lab. Read it for Friday and bring something to test for antibiotic properties. Start Reading Chapter 43.
- Fri 1/31: Using sterile technique, spread bacteria on petri plates and then place 4 disks on your plate: 1 plain (control), 2 disks of the item of your choice, and one prepared (either ampicillin or streptomyocin). Go over acquired immunity (B and T cells). Read more of chapter 43. Bring a prepared data table to record measurements of "zones of inhibition" for all the plates in your class on Monday. Lab report due Friday, February 14 in hard-copy form and through turnitin.com. See details in post up above.
- Mon 2/3: Measure zones of inhibition for your plate and all the others in your class. Be as consistent as you can and record any associated qualitative data (observations). If time, continue with acquired immunity. Quiz on Biochemistry and Properties of Water on Friday.
- Wed 2/5: Finish acquired immunity. Monoclonal antibodies. Passive and Active Immunity. Blood clotting. Computer simulation of making vaccinations. Worksheet on Vaccinations and HIV/AIDS. Read 43.3.
- Fri 2/7: Quiz on Properties of water and Biochemistry. HIV/AIDS. History, transmission, risk groups, treatment. Read 43.4.
Remember to clear Wednesday, February 19th for the Group IV Project if you are testing in IB Biology this Spring and you did not do the project already (a few of you may have done it for IB Chem or IB Physics last year. You know who you are!)
