Chapter 85 Specimen Contamination?

"[Zero], have you recorded all the data of this experiment?"

In the empty laboratory, Bai Shu suddenly asked the air.

[Yes, designer, all the data of the experiment has been recorded. 】

As the screen of a computer in the laboratory flickered slightly, a mechanical sound came from the speaker.

"What's the result of the comparison?"

Bai Shu rubbed the sore corners of her eyes, asked with some anticipation, and seemed a little numb.

[Unfortunately, designer, after careful comparison, the experimental data did not find any special circumstances. 】

There is no fluctuation in the sound from the speakers.

Hearing this, Bai Shu immediately lay down on the chair, looked up at the ceiling of the laboratory, and was speechless for a while.

Half a year has passed since returning from Borneo, and the research on the blood orchid has also been carried out for half a year. However, after half a year of experiments, the progress of Baizhu's blood orchid extract is almost zero.

Except for a few more cell experiments, the whole experiment did not have any promising findings.

"Did I go in the wrong direction, or did I forget something?"

Recalling the experiment process, Bai Shu frowned and remained silent.

[Designer, Ms. Sam Rogers has come to the door of the laboratory. 】

Just when he was thinking hard about what went wrong, a voice suddenly came out from the computer speaker.

"Well, I see."

Hearing this, Bai Shu had a wry smile on his face.

After Jack Byron died, Sam Rogers became Bai Shu's experimental assistant.

After more than half a year of contact, Bai Shu found that this girl obviously had a crush on him, and outside the laboratory, he often found opportunities to spend time alone with him.

However, because the experiment has not progressed for a long time, and Sam's appearance does not conform to his aesthetics, Bai Shu has been pretending to be deaf and dumb in the face of Sam's overtures.

"Hey Alex, are you still working in the lab?"

Today, Sam obviously dressed herself up carefully. The slim down jacket outlines her exquisite figure, and she also puts on a light makeup on her face.

"Yes, you also know that because there has been no progress for a long time, the investors have already had some opinions."

Bai Shu spread out her hands, then smiled and said, "Is today a special day, dressed so beautifully?"

Hearing Bai Shu praised her beauty, Sam showed a look of joy, but then she laughed: "Alex, you haven't stepped out of the laboratory for a long time, and you won't forget what day it is today Bar?"

"Huh? What day?"

Bai Shu was taken aback.

"Today is Christmas!"

Sam Rogers said.

"I see!"

Bai Shu nodded suddenly: "I also said why there are few researchers in the laboratory these two days."

"Everyone is back on vacation, by the way, Alex, do you have any plans?"

Sam asked slightly expectantly.

"I?"

Bai Shu shook his head: "I will probably continue to do experiments in the laboratory."

"Come on!"

Sam covered her forehead and said speechlessly: "Alex, you should learn to relax. Although we are all anxious that the experiment has not progressed, but...well, what did you Hua people say, you need to rest for a while. Just be busy for a while."

"That's called work and rest."

Bai Zhu corrected each word in pure Mandarin.

"Yeah yeah, 'Old...one...jie...he', you can't keep yourself busy all the time."

Sam Rogers persuaded while pronouncing with difficulty.

"No, I still think the experiment is more interesting."

Bai Shu thought for a while, but still rejected Sam's offer.

"Oh, well, in that case, we'll see you after the holidays."

After a few words of persuasion, seeing Bai Shu's determination, Sam left the laboratory disappointed.

Seeing the figure of Sam Rogers leaving, Bai Zhu sighed softly. With the lessons learned from Aunt Thirteen, Bai Zhu didn't want to provoke other women anymore.

"By the way, [Zero], did you buy the stocks I asked you to buy?"

Taking his mind away from Sam, Bai Zhu asked the computer.

[Yes, designer, I have already bought all of them. 】

"Well, what's the increase now?"

Bai Shu asked again.

[Taken together, the designer’s entire stock has increased by more than 230% and is now worth more than $200 million. 】

"Ten million dollars?"

Bai Shu nodded, not particularly feeling about becoming a millionaire.

In fact, after traveling, he discovered that this world is very similar to the earth world, and many big companies and celebrities are all exactly the same.

Therefore, in order to improve his life, as early as the beginning of time travel, Bai Shu has been intentionally buying stocks of some famous companies in his previous life.

However, because he did not have much capital before, these investments have always been small-scale investments.

However, following the equity distribution half a year ago, he obtained 30% of the shares of the Reorganization Research Institute and an annual salary of 50 US dollars, his previous small business has become a very profitable investment Behavior.

"[Zero], sell about 30 stocks."

Bai Shu ordered: "Then spend all the money on biological experiment equipment."

[Yes, designer. 】

After receiving the reply of [Zero], Bai Shu bowed his head and started a new round of experimental research.

a few days later.

All the biological experiment equipment purchased by Bai Zhu was shipped to his home.

"Since the blood orchid extract has not made any progress, why not study this stone spider venom to change your mood."

After putting away all the experimental equipment, Bai Zhu took the stone spider out of the petri dish.

After extracting a drop of spider venom, Bai Zhu put it under a high-powered microscope and began to study the components of the venom.

Half an hour later, the naked eye observation was completed.

Afterwards, just as he was about to put the venom into the solution and analyze its components accurately, he only heard a sound from [Zero] in the computer——

[Designer, a sample in the laboratory has changed! 】

"Oh?"

Bai Shu was startled, and asked anxiously, "Which sample, what change?"

[No. 786A35 sample, in which the free ribosomes are significantly increased in the overall ratio. 】

"786A35?"

The number quickly flashed in Bai Shu's mind: "This is a retinal cell specimen, but...the number of free ribosomes has increased?"

Bai Shu was a little puzzled.

Although retinal cells are also non-renewable cells, even if the blood blue extract breaks through the Hayflick limit, it will not increase the number of free ribosomes.

With doubts, Bai Zhu immediately drove back to the laboratory regardless of the research on the venom of the stone spider.

When Bai Shao returned to the laboratory, the staff of the institute also discovered the abnormality of this specimen.

"Alex, you came just in time, I was just about to call you back."

Sam Rogers reported with a report: "We found an abnormality in specimen No. 786A35, and a large number of free ribosomes suddenly appeared in the specimen."

Bai Shu took the report and read it carefully, and found that it was basically consistent with what [Zero] reported.

"Did you take out the target Yang Bei?"

Bai Shu asked while changing into work clothes with the help of Sam.

"It has been taken out, and Jerry is currently observing it with the naked eye."

Sam replied.

"Well, what about the comparison specimen?"

Bai Shu asked again.

"It was also taken out and observed together."

While talking, the two entered the sterile laboratory.

After entering the laboratory, Jerry happened to raise his head from the observation platform, looking at Bai Shu and Sam who were full of hope, he looked annoyed: "Sorry, I think... we may have made a mistake."

"What do you mean?"

asked Sam, frowning.

"The increase in free ribosomes is not due to the effect of blood blue extract on retinal cells,"

Jerry spread his hands and said, "It's because this cell sample is contaminated."

"Oh, damn it!"

Hearing Jerry's answer, Sam cursed helplessly.

In cell experiments, it is very common for samples to be contaminated. It may be a mistake in the transportation process, or there may be a problem with the specimen itself, or it may be due to improper operation...

"It seems that we were happy in vain."

Sam sighed to Bai Shu.

"No, maybe... there will be unexpected gains."

There was a gleam of light in Bai Shu's eyes.
