Chapter 910: The Pros and Cons of GMOs
After all, the comrades of the Health Bureau must know what kind of drugs are most needed in the market now.
Hearing Zhao Zhongyao say this, Liu Feng felt that it was also very reasonable: "Director Zhao, what you said is that we might as well go to the Health Bureau, so that we can know what kind of drugs are urgently needed in the market." ”
"Yes, we have to study the drugs that are urgently needed in the market, so that we can show the special status of our technology. ”
Zhao Zhongyao also felt that if he studied ordinary drugs, he would not be able to see the special status of their technology. If only I could research a drug that was urgently needed in the market. It can be seen how much of a role their genetically modified technology will have for this society.
In this way, the next morning, Zhao Zhongyao took Liu Feng and drove to the city. The two of them inquired about the location of the city health bureau and drove to the health bureau.
When they arrived at the health bureau, the two of them found two junior leaders of the health bureau. I asked them what they now think is the most needed drug on the market.
The two little leaders listened to the words of the two of them and pondered for a moment. After all, Zhao Zhongyao suddenly asked this, which made the family a little overwhelmed.
After a while, one of the small leaders looked at Zhao Zhongyao and said, "I feel that the most necessary drug on the market now is an anti-hepatitis B virus drug. This drug, because the production cost is very high, is not possible to produce in large quantities. Now this drug, in our small city, can be said to be very scarce. Such drugs are available only in large cities.
In other words, children in small cities are now unable to be vaccinated with this anti-hepatitis B virus. In this way, children in some small cities do not have the same health guarantee as children in big cities.
We now think that if someone can invent a technology that can produce this anti-hepatitis B virus drug in large quantities at low cost, he can be said to have made a huge contribution to this society. ”
After listening to the words of the small leader of the Health Bureau, Zhao Zhongyao thought for a while and said: "Okay, then we will study a drug against the hepatitis B virus." Let the children of our small cities also be able to use such drugs. ”
After saying that, Zhao Zhongyao looked at the little leader again and said: "Then do we have such a medicine in Jianghai City? ”
Zhao Zhongyao also knows that although Jianghai City is a prefecture-level city, it is not a first-tier big city at all. In such a second-tier city, I don't know if there is any medicine for this.
After listening to Zhao Zhongyao's words, the little leader of the health bureau smiled and said, "I'm sorry, we don't have such drugs in Jianghai City." We had some of them before, and they were also bought from the capital at a high price. Now all of them have been vaccinated against the children of wealthy families. But even if the price is very high, the supply is still in short supply!
As you know, gold has a price, and medicine has no price. Regardless of the economic strength of household appliances, in terms of the growth of the next generation of children, any parent spares no effort to want their children to grow up healthy and healthy. No matter how much it costs, as long as the children can grow up healthy, the feeling of being a parent is worth it.
As soon as I heard what the little leader of the health bureau said. Zhao Zhongyao felt that he had a great responsibility. It is important to develop new ways to produce the hepatitis B vaccine in large quantities. It is possible to produce new hepatitis B vaccines in large quantities. In this way, all children in the world can be vaccinated against hepatitis B from an early age, so that they can grow up healthy and happy.
"Okay, then let's not develop this new anti-hepatitis B virus vaccine! We want to let the children in the entire Jianghai City be able to receive such a vaccine from an early age. Zhao Zhongyao looked at the little leader and said.
When this little leader heard Zhao Zhongyao's words, he was also very moved. He looked at Zhao Zhongyao and said: "Expert Zhao, if you can really research a new type of anti-hepatitis B virus vaccine, then you have really made a great contribution to society." ”
"Well, it's a doctor's job to save lives. And we medical experts should also develop drugs that are very necessary for this society. This is our own responsibility, not to mention making a huge contribution to society. Zhao Zhongyao looked at the little leader and said politely.
After Zhao Zhongyao learned such a piece of information, he returned to the 308 base with Liu Feng.
After returning to the base, Liu Feng couldn't wait to look at Zhao Zhongyao and said, "Director Zhao, we didn't run in vain this trip! In the next step, we just need to develop this new anti-hepatitis B virus drug. ”
Liu Feng is very happy now anyway, he doesn't know how to develop such a new anti-hepatitis B virus drug, but he just feels that he will definitely be able to research it.
"That's right, the next step is to develop this new anti-hepatitis B virus drug. If our research is successful, we will definitely make a great contribution to this society, and when the time comes, the two of us will once again become the target of everyone's attention because of this incident. At that time, there may be some unexpected benefits waiting for us. ”
Zhao Zhongyao knows that as long as he can do something that will contribute greatly to this society. Then he will definitely become a star in this world, and everyone will definitely pay attention to him.
"What Director Zhao said is that if we want to survive in this society and make some achievements, that is, we must do things that are useful to the society. Only in this way can we be recognized by this society. Only then can we get what we want. We have to give before we can get it. Liu Feng listened to Zhao Zhongyao's words, and also said such philosophical words.
"What you're saying is that this time, as long as the two of us develop a new anti-hepatitis B virus drug, then we will become famous figures in the entire medical community. At that point, there will be something we want to get but not get. Zhao Zhongyao looked at Liu Feng and said something that made him a little happy.
"Director Zhao, how can we develop this new antiviral hepatitis B vaccine, I don't seem to have a clue now. ”
Liu Feng was very happy. But after he was happy, he felt that the things he was facing were still very complicated. It's not as simple as he thinks.
"You should study this matter yourself! I'll figure it out. It's a good thing for us, though. But it's not easy to get this done. No research work is easy. We must have faith. If you don't have faith, you can't do anything. Zhao Zhongyao looked at Liu Feng again and said.
"Okay, then I'll study it myself first, and Director Zhao will also think of a way, I know, you are an all-rounder, there is nothing you don't know. If you want to research this new antiviral hepatitis B vaccine this time, it depends on you, Director Zhao, and I can only do what you say. If I had to figure it out on my own, I really wouldn't have thought of a good way. ”
Although Liu Feng is a very talented young man, it depends on who he compares with. Compared with ordinary young people, Liu Feng is certainly a very talented young man. But if you compare it with Zhao Zhongyao, his talent is nothing.
"Liu Feng, don't say that, I'm not an immortal either! It's just that the two of us work together. Zhao Zhongyao listened to Liu Feng's words and said modestly.
However, there is one thing that Zhao Zhongyao knows. That is, he was a born-again man. It was reborn from a highly technologically advanced space to a less technologically advanced space. After Zhao Zhongyao arrived in this space, he felt that some of the general scientific and technological levels he knew in that world had become very advanced in this world.
I thought of researching a new type of antiviral hepatitis B vaccine. Zhao Zhongyao also began to recall how the hepatitis B vaccine he knew in the world before his death was developed.
Zhao Zhongyao thought for a moment, as if he knew some clues. After all, he was a scientist during his lifetime. I usually like some new technology things. Even if it's some new biomedical technology, he likes to know about it.
In the 80s of the last century, the genetically modified hepatitis B vaccine was successfully developed. The principle is that the part of the hepatitis B virus gene that is responsible for the expression of surface antigen is "sheared" and transferred into yeast. When yeast that is transducted into the hepatitis B virus gene grows, it produces hepatitis B surface antigen. Yeast is an organism that grows and reproduces rapidly, so hepatitis B surface antigen is produced in large quantities.
Zhao Zhongyao is a famous scientist in the world, although he does not specialize in biology. Nor is it specialized in genetically modified technology. But he still knows about it.
Zhao Zhongyao now thinks that since he has mastered this genetically modified technology, he must let this technology benefit this society. We should not allow this kind of technology to harm the people.
When it comes to genetically modified technology, there are also some disadvantages. For example, in food, due to the extensive use of genetically modified technology, the genes of many foods themselves have changed. In this way, people will have some risk of getting sick when they eat these foods. The most common is that after eating genetically modified foods, there will be allergic reactions.
Regarding the rights and wrongs of genetically modified organisms, Zhao Zhongyao also heard a lot of things about this in the world before his death. He knows that there are many disadvantages of genetically modified organisms, especially in terms of food, which has been valued by many countries in the world.
In this world after Zhao Zhongyao's rebirth, due to the underdeveloped level of science and technology, there is no such technology as genetically modified. Although Zhao Zhongyao has now researched this technology, many people still don't understand this technology.
Under such circumstances, Zhao Zhongyao knew that he must let this technology benefit the society, and not let this technology harm the people. Zhao Zhongyao already knew that in the world before his death, people's biggest criticism of genetically modified organisms was that after it was used in food, people's lives and health were threatened.
After knowing this, Zhao Zhongyao thought that if he wanted to study the matter of genetically modified now, he would not study the role of this aspect in food. Although, in the future, he may consider using genetically modified technology to benefit this society in this regard. But for now, he still just wants this technology to benefit the society in the field of medicine.
To say that the greatest contribution of genetically modified technology to human beings is to produce some useful drugs for human beings in the field of medicine. Genetically modified technology, and only in the field of medicine, is not questioned.
When Zhao Zhongyao knew the great contribution of genetically modified technology in human research on anti-hepatitis B virus vaccines, he thought that this technology that he knew should make a great contribution to the world in this underdeveloped world.
Besides, Liu Feng is now thinking about developing a new type of anti-hepatitis B virus drug, and he has also used his own genetically modified technology to conduct research. But he studied for a few days, but he couldn't figure out why. After studying for more than ten days, there has been no progress, so it can be said that there is no clue at all.
And after Zhao Zhongyao thought of this matter, he called Liu Feng to his office again.
Liu Feng was feeling a little overwhelmed now, and he was also happy for a while, feeling that he could research this new antiviral drug. But after he experimented for more than ten days, there was still no progress, which made him a little discouraged.
"Liu Feng, have you made any progress in researching genetically modified hepatitis B drugs during this period of time? Have you ever researched this new type of anti-hepatitis B drug? ”
Zhao Zhongyao looked at Liu Feng and asked first. After all, Zhao Zhongyao's work is also very busy, and he can't study this kind of thing with Liu Feng every day.
"Director Zhao, I'm sorry, I've been studying for so long, but there is no progress at all, and I don't know what to do!" Liu Feng looked at Zhao Zhongyao, looking a little helpless. After all, he had thought about this one thing too simply. When he really researched this new antiviral drug, he realized that what he had thought before was too simple. It's not that easy to do.
"Liu Feng, that's the case, what kind of problems are you encountering now, I'll see if I can help you solve it. Zhao Zhongyao looked at Liu Feng again and said.
"Director Zhao, the problem I am facing now is how to produce antigens against hepatitis B virus in large quantities. I know about it, but I don't know how to do it. ”
