There is not one answer for this because different formulations of insulin will reach peak levels at different times and the length of time that insulin stays active will vary because of anti-bodies to inusulin as well as metabolic factors. Having said that human insulin takes about an hour to peak and then is about half that peak within 5 hours. see http://care.diabetesjournals.org/content/7/2/188.full.pdf

Can half-life source be used for half-life mods?

Eight games total not including countless mods created by fans that you can download for free on moddb.com and fileplanet.com. Other games by Valve software include Left 4 Dead, Left 4 Dead 2, Portal, Portal 2, Counter Strike, Counter Strike: Source, Team Fortress, Team Fortress 2, and Alien Swarm. Another Half-Life game would be Half-Life: Decay. You might also be able to count Half-Life Deathmatch and Half-Life 2 Deathmatch.

There is something called Decay on the first half-life where you play as two women during the incident. There is also a half-life 2: deathmatch, and that's more or less it.

There is kosher insulin that is derived from a plant. However, as insulin is injected and not consumed and because it is required to maintain the health and life of diabetics, porcine derived insulin is allowed.
