How Do Our Kidneys Work?
(Components for 6 experiments)

Human blood is the carrier of nutrients and oxygen to cells and serves to remove cell bi-products and carbon dioxide away from cells. Carbon dioxide is exchanged for oxygen in the lungs and the kidneys remove metabolic products in urine. Individuals suffering with serious kidney diseases can be helped by kidney dialysis. This experiment provides a visual demonstration of hemodialysis using safe dyes that represent blood and urine. The patient’s blood is circulated outside the body into an artificial kidney machine. After removal of urine, blood is returned to the patient.
Includes: Dialysis tubing, dyes, Simulated patient and control samples, calibrated pipets, content background, experiment procedures, safety information and assessment questions and answers.
