Scholar’s Advanced Technological System

Sometimes Wang Peng really felt that Lu Zhou didn't take health seriously.

Even if the lab is more interesting, you don't even have to sleep at night to run over, right?

Besides, he had just returned from Shanghai a few hours ago.

Honestly speaking about his current position, even if he doesn't do anything, his contribution will not be lost to anyone. His existence is like a business card, or a banner, just standing there is enough for the world to ignore.

At least in Wang Peng's opinion, nothing is more important than his health, even if it is the series of results he has made after completing the controllable fusion project, he is afraid that he will let the astronauts of Huaguo stand On the moon ...

Recalling Dr. Yan and his own instructions, he must urge Academician Lu to pay attention to his body and the instructions from his superiors, so that he should not only be responsible for Lu Zhou's safety, but also pay attention to his health. Wang Peng had a headache. .

How to persuade this thing?

No way to persuade.

Thinking of this, Wang Peng dumbfounded the cigarette from the purse, lit it and smoked it, leaning against the door and spit out a cigarette ring.

This is probably the longest, most headache, and the most embarrassing task he has performed since he joined the army ...

...

I had already applied for the laboratory when I was in the car.

Arrived directly to the destination, Lu Zhou first went to the pool to wash his hands, and then ordered Xiao Ai to take over the monitoring of the entire building. After making sure that no traces were left, he removed the metal round tube from the system space.

Under the light of an incandescent lamp, the surface of the metal round tube glowed a faint silver light, forming a sharp contrast with the thick dark green liquid shaking behind the glass tank.

Without wasting time, Lu Zhou took the metal round tube and came to a white biosafety cabinet about the size of two refrigerators, carefully placed it on the inlet, and then started the equipment.

This biosafety cabinet is tailor-made by the German Medical Equipment Company for the Jinling Institute of Advanced Research. It uses air curtain isolation technology and is equipped with a ULPA ultra-high-efficiency filter. Outer row after double filtration.

Coupled with a high-power air pump that can be evacuated to a relative vacuum, an ultraviolet killing system, and an acid and alkali pool for inactivating special bacteria ... here is like **** to microorganisms, and theoretically it can be absolutely safe .

Furthermore, Lu Zhou can say without exaggeration that if the umbrella company is willing to spend as much as itself on the issue of experimental safety, the residents of Raccoon City will not be so miserable.

At the same time, in addition to the two manual-operated latex gloves, there are also two electrically driven flexible robotic arms inside the entire device.

In addition to the manual operation, researchers using this equipment can also use the numerical control control program to achieve precise operation of the samples in the biological cabinet.

In fact, most researchers do not need this system. After all, most experiments can be performed by hand. But for Lu Zhou, with a clever lab assistant like Xiao Ai, those trivial things naturally do not need him to do it himself.

Of course, to match these powerful features, the cost of this device is also quite expensive. Xingkong Technology purchased a total of two units, the cost of a single unit up to 10 million RMB.

Although compared to other biological experimental equipment, the cost of 10 million RMB is not much, such as a better cryo-electron microscope, without a budget of 30 million, it would not be able to get it.

However, the cryo-electron microscope is a cryo-electron microscope. Who would normally spend 10 million for an average biological safety cabinet that fakes only 20,000? !!

It can only be said that poverty limits one's imagination.

The level of tyrants of the Jinling Institute of Advanced Research has far exceeded the imagination of domestic scholars in the same field.

It is said that because experimental equipment is too expensive, many scientific dogs are shaking from the moment they step into the laboratory door when many scientific dogs apply for this laboratory.

I'm afraid I've scratched off a layer of paint and lost a down payment on a house.

But in fact, this kind of thing does not happen at least, at least in Lu Zhou's view, the experimental equipment is a consumable, and if you buy it when it is broken, there is no need to let go and hold it like a baby.

Rather than saving costs for him, he is more inclined to encourage researchers in the institute to invest resources boldly in the laboratory.

In his opinion, every penny spent on scientific research is worth it, even if it may not be worth it now, it will definitely be used in the future ...

After setting the experimental parameters, Lu Zhou went to the coffee machine and made himself a cup of coffee.

Waited quietly for a while.

Soon, a series of rough laboratory data, including microscope images, toxicity tests, and so on, were all listed in an experimental report and presented to him.

As he guessed, this dark green liquid was composed of a special kind of microorganisms and was safe in terms of toxicity.

Observer civilization in the void did not stab him with a tube of biochemical weapons in the metal tube. At least for now, he can't see that this thing is offensive in any sense.

They are shaped like shuttles, slowly agitating under a microscope at a certain frequency.

In addition to those organelles, which are mostly found in living things, a special layer of mucus is attached to the surface of these microbial cells. And this layer of mucus is like a kind of hydrophobic adhesive, which tightly binds microorganisms to each other and exchanges some special pheromone between each other.

In addition, this microorganism has a peculiar characteristic that DNA and RNA have extremely high stability. In general, in order to ensure the superiority of their populations in the environment, most microbes have a certain probability to take out a piece of their RNA or DNA after they have swallowed other microbes and viruses to achieve their own. Strengthen your purpose.

However, this kind of microorganism is not the same. After swallowing other smaller microorganisms, instead of taking their DNA or RNA fragments as their own, they destroy them and directly convert them into energy use.

Not only that, they are united, moving forward and retreating together, not only rejecting external mutations, but also their own mutations.

Even in the case of a mutated individual, if the exchange of pheromones cannot be completed normally, it will be quickly swallowed and broken down by other microbial individuals ... as if it was cleaning up cancer cells.

This microbial community is extremely resistant to all forms of mutation and extremely maintains the purity of the community ’s genes.

It is difficult to imagine that such "paranoid" microorganisms can survive the elimination of natural selection.

Considering the treasures that the Void gave them, most of them are "relics" left by the extinct civilization. Lu Zhou speculated that most of this kind of microorganism is also a masterpiece of a well-developed civilization.

In order to observe its eating process, Lu Zhou tried to tell Xiao Ai to add 1g of bread crumbs with a diameter of about 0.3mm to the petri dish, and then observed the reaction of these microorganisms under an electron microscope.

Soon, when the bread crumbs contacted the mucus on the surface of the microorganisms, these bread crumbs were gradually broken down into smaller pieces of organic matter with the transport of mucus, and eventually transported to the inside of the cells.

After a special respiration reaction, these organic debris are finally converted into energy and carbon dioxide, and a special ketone.

This ketone is a bit like a synthetic intermediate for trans fats, but Lu Zhou has not observed further reactions.

He can only judge through toxicity testing that this ketone is harmless to other organisms, but it will inhibit the division and proliferation of this microorganism itself.

"A special decomposer?"

"It should be good for treating domestic sewage and urban feces, but it seems that the reproduction speed is a little too slow."

"The secretion has a single composition, and there are no allergens that may induce an allergic reaction in the human body. It should be directly edible as food ... but it probably won't taste good."

"... may be good as a mask or something?"

Thinking of this, Lu Zhou's face couldn't help but a strange expression appeared.

Honestly, this is one of the last things he wants to believe.

You know, this is a vanity gift.

If it were just the two uses of sewer cleaners and mask mud, although the economic value is not small, it will still somewhat disappoint him.

After all, sometimes this thing cannot be measured simply by money.

Time passed minute by minute, the sky outside the window has gradually turned from a deep night, a touch of white.

After spending the whole night, I did a land boat without array experiments, looked at the experiment report on my hand, and rubbed the sour nose bridge.

In general, there was a lot to gain this evening.

Unfortunately, this mysterious microorganism seems to be out of rancidity and does not seem to show any other useful properties.

Not only that, its growth rate is quite slow, even after the macroscopic volume grows to the size of a fist, it will not continue to multiply.

The pheromones circulating between the microbial masses seem to automatically adjust the number of populations, keeping their overall size within a limited range.

In order for it to continue to breed, it is necessary to actively physically separate its individuals to block the exchange of pheromones between the microbiota and the microbiota.

If it is only a small expert in septic tanks, its slow reproduction alone may not be better than other similar microbiomes.

As for the mask ...

He really didn't want to sell this thing as a mask for a few dollars.

It's too cheap!

Xiao Ai: [Master, do you want to end the experiment? (?? v ｀)]

Lu Zhou nodded his head: "Get here today ... Remember to clean it."

Xiao Ai: [No problem, wrap it on Xiao Ai! Right, by the way, master, you have n’t named this microorganism yet, do you need Xiao Ai's help to do it for you? (????????????) ????]

"no need……"

Of course, you have to come by yourself to get the name. How can it be handed over to an artificially retarded person?

After thinking about it, Lu Zhou glanced at the few lines of data in the experimental report in his hand ~ www.readwn.com ~ With the first impression, he picked up the pen and wrote down the name [Dr-111].

"Just call this."

Xiao Ai: [Hey ... does this name have any special meaning? (??????????)]

Lu Zhou: "Is it necessary?"

Xiao Ai: [Of course not, just Xiao Ai thinks, maybe it will be better to name Xiao Ai next time ... slip. | ○ ?? ω ??) っ】

Lu Zhou: "..."

This guy, there is more and more nonsense.

Entries on [Dr-111] were registered in the database. After all the experimental data was collected from the cache, Xiao Ai started operating the biological safety cabinet to disinfect and sterilize the residues inside.

The metal round pipe pops out from the feed port, and the air pump evacuates the air in the biological safety cabinet. With the opening of the ultraviolet sterilization system, the entire biological safety cabinet has become a purgatory of microorganisms.

However, at this moment, an unexpected scene happened to Lu Zhou.

I saw the dark green mucus lying in the petri dish, although the shrinkage was evaporating at a rate visible to the naked eye, but the complete form was still tenaciously maintained.

It's like a cricket bitterly supported by the burning of salt ...

"Turn off the UV killing system!"

Xiao Ai: [Hey? 0.0]

Although confused by Lu Zhou's order, Xiao Ai turned off the ultraviolet sterilization system.

At that time, when the ultraviolet radiation gradually weakened, staring at Lu Zhou who controlled the interface of the system, there was a flash of aura in his brain.

Maybe he knew.

Why did the dying civilization create this "stubborn" microorganism.

Or,

He finally knew where the real use of this stuff was ...
