As new advancements in biotechnology are made more is added to other topics. This results in less time to cover this topic. 400 400 In this unit students learn about the human immune system and how it works to fight off infections. They then learn about how the immune system can be used to produce monoclonal antibodies and their application in diagnositic tests and treatment of cancer, alleries, and autoimmune diseases. 400 400 500 Students will be able to: 500 A. Outline the components of the immune system and describe how T and B lymphocytes orchestrate and attach on pathogens and establish immunity against future attacks, 500 B. Explain the procedure used to produce monoclonal antibodies, 500 C. Explain how monoclonal antibodies can be used to diagnosis infections such as strep and conditions such as pregnancy, 500 D. Explain how monoclonal antibodies can be used to treat disorders such as cancer, allergies, and autoimmune diseases. 600 ELISA Test Lab 700 Objective and subjective testing 700 ELISA Lab assessment 700
