Well, this is awfully random.

Google is your friend

Hello all,

Is there a protocol somewhere that shows how scientists synthesize insulin?

Thanks

A quick google search turned up quite a few results for me. This was literally the third link when I googled "how to synthesize insulin".

Do you think SDN would be the first place I go to? I tried google and I can't find anything and was wondering if someone had a better website too look into.

Are you sure it was Google and not Yahoo? lol

Their pancreas does it for most of them.

Hahahahahahaha nice one

Does it show the steps? I found tons of website that just give an idea on how it's done but not Like a protocol of what's needed and the steps to synthesize it. I'm on my phone so the website doesn't show anything, I'll check it later. Thanks

It seems to.

Creating synthetic insulin is a rather complicated process involving genetic recombination and using bacteria. It's not a simple protocol to follow, that's probably why you haven't found anything super specific. In the past they would just grind up the pancreas of animals and isolate the insulin.

Here's a synopsis of the procedure: http://www.diabeteswellbeing.com/synthetic-insulin/

This is why the US needs universal healthcare, so we don't have random SDN'ers making their insulin in their basement.

Oh that's why!

OP, all you need to do is find a little bit of pure insulin (maybe around 10 mL is good) and mix it in with some bacteria plates you swabbed from under your shoe. This gives the best random distribution of bacteria available which is what you want. Place both the bacteria and insulin in a styrofoam cup and shake vigorously. Let the cup sit for about 5 days in a room temperature environment. Voila. You have successfully produced insulin from genetic recombination. No need for any fancy lab equipment. The bacteria you used will kill any other bacteria available in the mixture, producing a pure insulin mixture. I think this is called positive feedback or something.

Seriously. When I see some dirty trailer sitting out in the middle of nowhere, I just know they're cooking insulin in there.

Lol ahh people

Insulin. Not even once.

Take a genetics course.

Bathtub insulin

You forgot the serial dilution steps.

Homeopathic bathtub insulin is way more effective and has far fewer toxins

No need. The bacteria take care of everything. The reason the random distribution of bacteria works is because you get smart and dumb bacteria all in one mixture. The smart bacteria do all the dirty work so you don't have to.
