Genetic Engineering Laboratory. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

After Gu Qiang carefully verified, he began the steps of thawing without the slightest delay.

Embryos preserved with liquid nitrogen can theoretically last for decades – of course, because the total length of time is not enough, and scientists can only guarantee that 85 years will be alive for more than 10 years.

However, the theoretical "shelf life" does not mean the best time.

For commercial embryo transfers, survival is the more important indicator.

Therefore, it is usually the right choice to use embryos as quickly as possible.

Several researchers from the Institute of Genetics seemed to want to say something, but they didn't say it when they thought about it.

Yang Rui and several other researchers, along with Comrade George Seid from the United States, carefully watched Gu Qiang's operation.

The genetic engineering lab was silent, with the only sounds of instruments and utensils.

When Jiang Zhijun came in, he saw such a harmonious scene.

After about 30 minutes, the thawed embryos were transferred to the first Simmental cow.

Including Gu Qiang, everyone quietly breathed a sigh of relief.

Jiang Zhijun took the opportunity to approach Yang Rui and said with a smile: "Why do you still use Simmental cattle?

"Make a comparison. Yang Rui explained casually, and then asked, "Have you discussed?"

"Lao Ding put me in full charge. Jiang Zhijun said that he had the final say. Their biological service company was originally three shareholders, Jiang Zhijun himself, Ding Shiyi and Wen Zelin, Ding Shiyi authorized him, Wen Zelin said that it was useless.

Yang Rui nodded, but he didn't care much, he didn't participate in their company at the beginning, he was tired of this kind of organizational personnel, and now he has no interest in joining.

Jiang Zhijun coughed lightly and continued: "You have done this work in China outside of us, and now you have to import it from abroad, how much will you get?"

"$300 for an embryo. Yang Rui replied: "The price given by the ranch at the University of Colorado is already the lowest price they can give.

Jiang Zhijun's brows immediately furrowed, and he was even a little angry, he adjusted his thoughts and said, "This price is enough for us to find a foreign technical service company." ”

He also understands the price.

Yang Rui bowed his head slightly and said: "This is originally an embryo from abroad, so it is naturally the price of foreign embryos." ”

"What do you mean? Isn't the project in your lab meant to replace foreign embryos?"

"This is the use of foreign embryos for verification. Yang Rui looked at Jiang Zhijun with a foolish expression, and said: "It's like doing medicine, you want to do clinical trials in large quantities, and animals also need to do clinical trials." Of course, embryo transfer is not medicine. ”

Jiang Zhijun didn't understand too much, and continued to frown and said, "What is the purpose of doing the verification? Is this necessary?"

"We had to prove that the embryo transfer we did in our lab was no worse than the embryo from abroad. Yang Rui paused for a moment, and then said: "Our domestic companies may not have requirements, but foreign companies or ranches have requirements, and they should take precautions." ”

Jiang Zhijun ignored the first half of what Yang Rui said, but he heard the second half of his words at once.

Yang Rui also wants to sell technology to foreign companies.

This is actually not surprising, Yang Rui had such a plan at the beginning of the establishment of the genetic engineering laboratory.

However, Jiang Zhijun thought that it should be a few years later -- the normal way of thinking should not be to do it in China for a few years first, wait for the technology to improve, and then consider the foreign market?

Jiang Zhijun would probably have laughed out loud if someone else said this.

But now he couldn't laugh.

Jiang Zhijun believes that Yang Rui has this ability.

In fact, any company that can provide commercial embryo transfer is world-class.

Since Jiang Zhijun established the company, he has also learned a lot of relevant information. He now knows that there are many companies involved in embryo transfer in the world, some of which are world-class multinational companies, but the companies that can really carry out large-scale commercial operations are only in the double digits, and some companies will also provide technical services to multiple multinational companies at the same time......

Therefore, as long as Yang Rui can complete commercial embryo transfer, he will be a world-class biotechnology service provider.

Further, if Yang Rui provided Jiang Zhijun and his company with some of the technology of embryo and embryo transfer, their company would be able to compete with world-class multinational companies, and if not, their company would simply have no foundation.

"How is it?" Yang Rui's voice interrupted Jiang Zhijun's reverie.

"001 is fine. Jiang Zhijun was talking about the number of Simmental cattle.

"Go ahead, finish as soon as possible. Yang Rui looked at his watch. A normal embryo transfer takes about 30 minutes, but it can be completed in 20 minutes if it is fast, or 5 hours for 10 Simmental cattle.

Gu Qiang wiped his sweat and continued to operate.

He does this by making a very small incision in the rib side of the cow and thus transferring the embryo into the body.

The two veterinarians standing behind him watched 001's operation, stared at 002's operation for a while, and almost learned it.

However, they are not allowed to practice on Simmental cattle.

Almost when Gu Qiang operated 005, several local cattle were brought over and became the subjects of the first batch of operation experiments by two veterinarians.

"Let's do it together?" Jiang Zhijun felt that he couldn't keep up with Yang Rui's train of thought.

"Of course. More than 200 cows. Yang Rui looked at his watch as he spoke, and said, "If there is no problem, we can go and rest." It will take a few days. ”

"Oh...... Oh......" Jiang Zhijun wanted to say something, but he didn't know what to say.

The cattle were obviously sent by the China Animal Husbandry Corporation, five heads and ten heads at a time, and they were sent over in a car, and by the way, the cattle that had been transferred and numbered were taken away.

Because the pastures of Zhongmu are close and ready to repeat, a total of two vehicles will be sent in turn to meet the needs.

The first large-scale embryo transfer in the entire laboratory actually had the feeling of an assembly line.

Jiang Zhijun trembled with envy, excitement, and excitement.

At this time, I listened to Yang Rui's muttering to himself: "Do you know why I want 1,000 acres of pasture? The current laboratory can't hold more than 200 cows, and these cattle have to be transported away just after embryo transfer. ”

"As long as the success rate exceeds ...... More than 40%......" Jiang Zhijun seemed to answer, and it was like chanting a mantra.

Yang Rui was unmoved, and said: "With foreign embryos, more than 40% does not count, you have to use your own work." ”

Yang Rui said, and turned back and ordered.

Jiang Zhijun suddenly didn't know where to look.
