You are preparing for an experiment in which you will be testing the relative ability of drugs to induce vasoconstriction in an isolated blood vessel prep and notice that the label has come off one of your aliquots. Using a series of known drugs (Characteristics listed below), design an experiment to most efficiently determine the identity of your unknown drug using your isolated vessel prep. Identify all of the potential scenarios. Please depict this as a flow chart.

 

α1-adrenoceptor agonist #1*

α1-adrenoceptor agonist #2*

α1-adrenoceptor antagonist

AT1 receptor agonist

AT1 receptor antagonist

*Agonist 1 is more potent than agonist 2.
