Universe dominance

Chapter 30, National Laboratory

As one of the top universities in China, Yanhuang University occupies an extremely vast area in an international metropolis like the Imperial Capital where every inch of land is worth every inch of money. The entire campus has a total area of ​​nearly 2 million square meters. If you walk within it, You may not be able to see all the famous attractions in Yanhuang University even if you walk for a whole day.

Yanhuang University occupies such a large area. In addition to the campus used for teaching, a large part of the area is actually used for scientific research. It has a large number of top scientific laboratories at home and abroad. These laboratories are not just for Yanhuang University. Most of the money used belongs directly to the state, and the required funds and so on are all borne by the state.

The China National Biological Laboratory for Disease Control and Prevention is one of the many top laboratories. The person in charge of this laboratory is Academician Liu Yi, a world-renowned biovirologist, an academician of the two national academies, an honorary professor of many famous universities in the world, and a national academician of many countries around the world.

In the laboratory, Li Fu was wearing white overalls and was operating the electron microscope in the laboratory to observe biological viruses. He was very serious and serious, meticulous in his work, and very skilled in operating the instruments. This made Liu Yi, who had been observing from the side, nodded with satisfaction.

Originally, Li Fu was just a third-year college student. Logically speaking, he could not participate in such an important laboratory. It could even be said that he could not even enter. After all, this laboratory was a national-level laboratory. The instruments and equipment are very precious.

There are only a few instruments and equipment in the world, and they are things that even money cannot buy. What’s more, the projects and topics studied here are national-level topics, and many of them require the highest level of confidentiality. In addition, There are various viruses, bacteria, etc. stored here. If any one is released, it will be enough to cause terrible consequences.

Therefore, there is no way to enter this laboratory without reaching a certain level and level. This is simply not something that Li Fu, a student in college, can enter.

However, since the last time Liu Yi called Li Fu over for a detailed discussion, Liu Yi discovered that Li Fu is quite extraordinary. His knowledge level in biotechnology has far surpassed that of an undergraduate, and can even be said to be comparable to ordinary biological scientists, especially In the field of biological virology, which Liu Yi is good at, Li Fudu has been able to talk fluently with Liu Yi and has a very deep foundation.

Moreover, Liu Yi also discovered that Li Fu not only had a very profound foundation in biology, but his insights in many aspects were always refreshing. Li Fu also had very profound knowledge in other subjects such as physics, chemistry, and computers. In terms of skills, Liu Yi felt that Li Fu was an all-around genius.

Liu Yi naturally cherished such a genius. In addition, he had checked Li Fu's profile earlier and knew that Li Fu studied very hard during college, his grades were always among the best, and he was also quite a good person. So Liu Yi directly expressed his intention to accept a disciple to Li Fu.

Li Fu was naturally very happy. Having a scientific master like Liu Yi as his mentor was something that countless people could only dream of. Without any hesitation, Li Fu agreed. Successfully becoming Liu Yi's student and a member of this national laboratory, he was able to freely go out of this tightly guarded international laboratory.

"Wow, this is indeed a world-class laboratory. The resolution of a very ordinary microscope can be so clear. The country does not just shout slogans for scientific research."

While Li Fu carefully observed the biological viruses under the microscope, he couldn't help but sigh in his heart. Without enough funds and advanced scientific research equipment, scientific research is basically empty talk. For scientists who study biology, a good microscope is It becomes particularly important.

Generally speaking, to measure the quality of a microscope, or to compare the effective magnification ability of a microscope, we look at the resolution rather than the magnification factor that everyone says. Only laymen will say how much magnification and how many times. Experts will generally say They all talk about the resolution.

The electron transmission electron microscope now in Li Fu's hands has a maximum magnification of about 2 million times and a limit resolution of about 1 nanometer. However, such an electron microscope is the most common in this national laboratory. microscope.

Li Fu heard from his senior brothers and sisters that there is a super electron microscope in the laboratory with a resolution of 0.5 angstroms (angstrom, whose foreign name is ngstrom or ANG or, is commonly used in crystallography, atomic physics, ultramicrostructure, etc. The unit of length, transliterated as "angstrom", the symbol is, 1 is equal to 10^(-10)m, which is one-tenth of a nanometer).

"No wonder China's science and technology has continued to rise over the years. The country is still very willing to invest in scientific research. To build such a national laboratory, not to mention anything else, the instruments and equipment in this laboratory alone are all I don’t know how many billion it will cost.”

It’s no wonder that Li Fu here is like Grandma Liu entering the Grand View Garden. When he entered this national laboratory for the first time, Li Fu was already deeply attracted by the environment here, especially the various advanced equipment here. The scientific research instruments and equipment made Li Fu want to drool just by looking at them.

Ever since Li Fu decided to shift his main focus to science and technology, Li Fu has been thinking about where to start. After thinking about it, he felt that it would be better to start from the biomedicine major he studied in university.

Because my major in college is biomedicine, starting from this field, it would not be surprising to achieve results in a short period of time. At most, I would be called a genius.

But if in other fields, if Li Fu made very amazing achievements all of a sudden, the world would find it strange, and it would also seem very unreasonable and unacceptable.

However, if you want to make achievements in the field of biological sciences, especially in a short period of time, it is basically impossible to achieve without good tools and mentors. The most important thing for studying biotechnology is a powerful microscope.

In addition to good microscopes, biological virus samples, experimental qualifications, etc., these problems have also been bothering Li Fu, making Li Fu feel like a headless fly. He has obviously learned a lot of super knowledge in his brain. The advanced scientific and technological knowledge of the civilized Han Technological Empire.

However, there was no condition or place for Li Fu to conduct experiments and verifications. He could only be anxious and unable to do anything. He could only continue to study various books in the library, especially some papers published by cutting-edge scientists. Wait for verification and comparison.

But now all the problems have been solved with Li Fu joining this world-class laboratory. The China National Biological Laboratory for Disease Control and Prevention not only has a variety of advanced scientific instruments and equipment, but also the The virus database contains almost all viruses currently discovered by humans.

As for issues such as experimental qualifications, it goes without saying. Ordinary experiments only need to be registered here in the laboratory. For major laboratories, just ask Liu Yi for his signature. There is no need for any complicated applications and approvals. .

Coming to such a place, Li Fu felt as if he had wings for soaring. In a short period of time, he became familiar with the management regulations of this international laboratory and understood the management rules and regulations here. , and can quickly master the operation of various instruments and equipment proficiently.

In addition to these, Li Fu's strong learning ability, profound foundation and skills soon conquered the scientific staff around him, making everyone who thought it was inappropriate for Liu Yi to suddenly recruit an undergraduate to shut up. He also looked up to Li Fu with admiration, and even Liu Yi was quite satisfied with Li Fu.

Li Fu is modest, prudent, cautious, super learning ability, strong leaping thinking ability, etc. No matter from every aspect, Li Fu is a very good biological scientist, just like a piece of jade, as long as With a little polishing, it will soon shine brightly to the world.

In a short period of time, Li Fu was able to truly integrate into the atmosphere of the laboratory, follow the rhythm of others, assist other scientists in the laboratory to do some relatively simple scientific research work, and also spend time in his spare time. In addition, I use the equipment, instruments and other conditions in the laboratory to study some of my favorite topics.

For example, right now, Li Fu is studying the use of virus to fight virus, hoping to find a virus that can deal with HIV without having any impact or harm on the human body. This was also the question Li Fu raised to Liu Yi during the project. Li Fu also provided considerable support in conducting research in this area and provided great convenience.

HIV, human immunodeficiency virus, also known as AIDS (acquired immunodeficiency syndrome) virus, is a virus that causes defects in the human immune system. Human immunodeficiency virus was first discovered in the United States in 1981. It is a lentivirus that infects cells of the human immune system and is a type of retrovirus.

There are four known strains of HIV, namely M, N, O, and P. Each has a different origin. Among them, the most widely spread M and N have long been confirmed to come from chimpanzees, but the rarer O and P are It was later confirmed that both O and P were gorillas from southwestern Cameroon.

Human immunodeficiency virus is about 120 nanometers in diameter and roughly spherical in shape. It mainly attacks the body's helper T lymphocyte system. Once it invades the body's cells, the virus will be integrated with the cells and difficult to eliminate for life, causing the body to lose its immune function and remain dormant. A terrible virus that is long-lasting and has a high mortality rate.
