Kuvakäsikirjoitus Teksti
- Hi! I’m Frederick Banting, the inventor of insulin. I am from Alliston, Ontario, Canada. I graduated in medicine from the University of Toronto in 1916, and I served in the First World War, did a post-graduate degree in surgery and started a medical practice in London. Welcome to the story of my invention!
- TASK 3. PROJECT: "Great serendipities of our history"INSULINFrederick Banting
- I remember that I was in the same place as always, Toronto on december 12, 1921, we had been locked up for months experimenting.
- Together with my student Charles Best, we discovered that an extract of the pancreas content had the ability to regulate glucose in animal blood.
- And we performed animal tests, such as with a diabetic dog, the extract lowered his blood glucose level in two hours!
- So after I, James Collip, joined the investigation, we purified the contents of the pancreas.
- Hi, my name is Leonard Thompson and I was 14 years old when I became the first person in the world to receive an injection of insulin.
- I was there! And in just 24 hours, Leonard’s dangerously high blood sugar levels subside.
- Even after my death in 1941, research continued and in 1978 a "human insulin" manufactured synthetically using recombinant DNA technology was discovered.
- It’s important because it helps to treat diabetes, regulate the metabolism and some processes of the human.
- THE IMPORTANCE OF INSULIN
-
- If you don't have diabetes: the insulin helps to regulate the blood sugar levels and store excess glucose for energy. If you have diabetes: Insulin therapy helps prevent diabetes complications by keeping your blood sugar level within a target range.
