You are employed at a biotech company, working on a new drug, named Zip, which is a putative weight loss aide. Your boss wants to know how this compound moves into red blood cells, and what its concentration will be in red blood cells. He has provided you with plenty of samples of drug Zip, and you have the means to measure its concentration (mmol l-1) inside and outside red blood cells, as well as the concentration of any metabolites of drug Zip (in case the body can turn Zip into other things). He has now asked you for a protocol, and predictions of how the data will come out depending on how Zip crosses the red blood cell membrane. 2. After three minutes, the concentration of drug Zip in the red blood cells is 10 mmoles l-1. What is the average rate of entry of drug Zip into the red blood cells in units of moles min-1 red blood cell-1 during the first three minutes after placing the red blood cells into the bathing solution? Assume that each red blood cell occupies about 1 x 10-13 liters. Show your work. (2 You are employed at a biotech company, working on a new drug, named Zip, which is a putative weight loss aide.
