Chapter 452: Let My Cat Go

Chemistry has opened a new door for Shen Qi, a field that is interesting, and its core is change and creation.

The departments that often conduct animal experiments are the Faculty of Medicine and the School of Life Sciences, and the School of Chemical Sciences occasionally conducts animal experiments.

Common laboratory animals include rats, rabbits, cats, dogs, pigeons, monkeys, etc.

Non-human primates such as chimpanzees, macaques, and baboons are the closest to humans and are very important laboratory animals.

Monkeys are cute animals, and Shen Qi doesn't want to execute primate experimental animals unless it is absolutely necessary.

Animal experimentation is an industry that can be described as a matter of opinion, and it is difficult to summarize the nature of this industry in simple terms such as "cruel" or "for science".

If one day simulation technology develops to the point where it is completely comparable to experimental technology, in vivo experiments will cease to exist.

But that day has not yet come, so animal testing has to continue.

On the premise of ensuring the effect of the experiment, the unconscious animals were used to replace the live animals, and the lower animals were replaced by the higher animals.

Use a small number of animals to obtain as much experimental data as possible.

When animal experiments must be performed, optimize the experimental procedures to minimize the pain and anxiety of the animals.

The above are the three guidelines that animal experimentalists must strictly adhere to--- 3R, that is, replacement, reduction, and refinement.

It is reassuring to know that Leloxinfine is not a lethal poison, and the life of the experimental animal will not be in danger if the dose is selected appropriately and the experimental design is reasonable.

After visiting the Department of Medicine and the School of Life Sciences, Shen Qi learned that there are regular companies in the market that specialize in raising and selling experimental animals, and the common primate experimental animals on the market are rhesus macaques and cynomolgus monkeys.

It's not that if you want to buy an experimental monkey, someone will sell it to you, which involves some reporting procedures and a government-controlled buying and selling process.

Shen Qi paced to Yang Dingtian's office and said, "Dingtian, help me apply and buy a batch of rhesus monkeys and cynomolgus monkeys, not too many, just four, one for each strain of monkeys, one for each male and female." ”

"You've finally done it to the monkey. Yang Dingtian said with a complicated expression, hugging the orange cat in his hand.

Shen Qi touched the orange cat's head: "We are all scientific researchers, and animal experiments are such a thing, just have a clear conscience." ”

The orange cat trembled, staring at Shen Qi in surprise with round eyes.

"Academician Shen, I can help you go through the procedure and buy experimental animals, but you must not do anything to my cat, please. Yang Dingtian has been tough all his life and does not ask for others, but now he is afraid, afraid that Shen Qi will catch any animal he sees on a whim, and click to dissolve it.

"Your cat is too fat, and many of its body indicators are exceeded, which is not suitable for scientific research purposes. Shen Qi said.

"That's good. Yang Dingtian breathed a sigh of relief.

"Meow ......" orange cat is relieved that obesity makes it feel safe.

"Dingtian, how long have you been with me?" asked Shen Qi.

Yang Dingtian said: "More than two years. ”

"Oh, unknowingly, I've been back to China for more than two years, have you finished correcting the paper of the B series sample of the FASTER project?"

"After the change, you will try it again?"

After the successful preparation of the B-series samples, the project team began to write articles to report on the research results.

The paper "Research on the Preparation and Performance of Cerium Gallium Copper Metal Plastics" was written by Yang Dingtian, and the first version has been shown to Shen Qi, and Shen Qi has put forward some revisions.

Shen Qi spent some time reviewing the revised version of "Research on the Preparation and Performance of Cerium Gallium Copper Metal Plastics", and told Yang Dingtian, send it, this article will be your doctoral dissertation.

Soon after, the four monkeys arrived at the Shen Qi Mathematics Research Center, where they were raised and served.

There was a lot of movement, and the entire center and other departments heard that Shen Qi was researching chemical experiments and doing animal experiments.

If you know, you know, Shen Qi is not doing underground experiments, researching deadly biological weapons or psychotropic addictive drugs. Routine chemical synthesis experiments and animal experiments, this kind of thing can't be hidden, and it's not necessarily a bad thing to make it public early.

Shen Qi's home.

Ou Ye is almost four months pregnant, and her belly is slightly bulging, which is not obvious.

Shen Qi observes Ou Ye's condition every day, and Ou Ye has stopped taking Western medicine for nearly four months, and she uses dietary therapy to control Mo's anemia and chronic diseases of the immune system.

The soup that Aunt Cuiping made today is stewed old hen with ginseng and licorice, which has a certain effect on anemic women.

Fortunately, Cui Ping was here, and her careful care helped Ou Ye a lot, and also made Shen Qi feel at ease.

"Wife, come, drink soup and eat ginseng. Shen Qi exhaled and blew the ginseng licorice stewed old hen soup to the right temperature.

"Hmm. Ou Ye took a few sips of soup.

"Wife, take a few more sips. ”

"It's full. ”

"That ginseng is eaten, for you and for the baby. ”

"Hmm. "Ouye forcibly devoured ginseng.

A jar of soup, Ou Ye drank a few sips and ate a ginseng.

The rest of the soup and the old hen were settled by Shen Qi.

A few months after Ou Ye became pregnant, Shen Qi gained more than a dozen pounds, and he followed Ou Ye to dip his light, and what he ate and drank every day was very nourishing ingredients.

"The academician villa in the west of Yanda has been built, it is very beautiful, and the interior is also very comfortable, and we moved there after the Spring Festival. Shen Qi said.

"Hmm. Ou Ye nodded and asked, "I heard that you are doing animal experiments?"

"There's such a thing, regular work. Wife, you still can't trust me about work? Your main task recently is to raise the baby with peace of mind, you know? After the New Year, you can take maternity leave. ”

"The due date is in August. Ou Ye said that there is still half a year to go, so there is no need to take maternity leave so early.

"Your physical condition is special, and it is understandable to take an early vacation. ”

"What's wrong with me?"

"Okay, good, my wife has the final say, so I don't have to take maternity leave so early. During this period, Shen Qi was obedient to Ou Ye.

"Actually, the nature of your work, working from home is no different from working in the office of the Math Building. That's how I manage the math researchers in my center, I don't require them to be in the center from 9 to 5 in the morning, and the only criterion is to turn in their homework on time. Shen Qi tactfully suggested that Ou Ye work from home during her pregnancy.

Ou Ye shook his head: "Working from home, there is no atmosphere." ”

"Wife, my own wife, what kind of atmosphere do you want for your math subject?"

"Hmph!" Ou Ye was unhappy, the emotional ups and downs of pregnant women were greater than those of non-pregnant women, she said: "Oh, Academician Shen's topic is a subject, and my topic is to play house?"

"No, no, no, I didn't mean that!" Shen Qi took a sip of old hen soup and asked calmly: "Your math topic is not finished, and you are not at ease when you have a child, right?"

"Husband, I know you feel sorry for me, but I don't want to achieve nothing. Ou Ye became very gentle after getting angry, she snuggled in Shen Qi's arms, and asked happily: "Husband, do you like boys or girls?"

"As long as it's a child born to you, I like it. ”

"Mmmm, husband, you have published a book, you are a cultural person, have you thought of the child's name?"

Shen Qixian's entanglement: "I thought of three hundred and twenty-four boys' names, and six hundred and ninety-three girls' names. Choosing a name is much harder than math, and I have to think again. ”
