Chapter 6 First Collaboration
As soon as Director Zhu's words fell, Nan Zhiqiao answered: "I will go to the scene of the epidemic to check, and there should be a discovery." Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info”
Ye Zhenzhen was a little excited in her heart, this was the first time she had officially gone to the scene of the epidemic with Nan Dashen, and she could see what he looked like when he worked on the site, and he could still learn......
Just when Ye Zhenzhen was a little happy, Nan Zhiqiao suddenly turned his head and said to Ye Zhenzhen beside him, "You stay in the laboratory of the Center for Disease Control and Prevention in Province G to help analyze the sequence and homology of the anthrax epidemic strain, and if you have any new discoveries, please contact me by phone." ”
"What, I'll stay in the lab?" Ye Zhenzhen stared, her mouth half open, and she couldn't believe that Nan Zhiqiao would arrange it like this.
If you stay in the laboratory of the Center for Disease Control and Prevention in Province G, you won't be able to go to the scene, it feels like you haven't been on a business trip, and I don't know what Nan Zhiqiao thinks? But in front of everyone, and she can't refute it face to face, Ye Zhenzhen couldn't help but speak, but she didn't nod her head in agreement, just stared at Nan Zhiqiao with disagreeing eyes.
Nan Zhiqiao didn't explain, but just discussed the next action with Director Zhu.
Suddenly, the phone in the conference room rang, the speaker picked up the phone, his expression became more and more solemn, and after hanging up the phone, he said in a deep voice: "The CDC in City B reported the epidemic, and in the urban area of City B, another anthrax epidemic was found. ”
"Elaborate on that. Director Zhu ordered.
"The Center for Disease Control and Prevention in City B received a report from the Infectious Diseases Department of the local People's Hospital this afternoon that seven patients were hospitalized with food poisoning, and Bacillus anthracis was found to be present in their bodies after testing, and the number of hospitalizations is still increasing. ”
"What about the specimens of the new hospitalized?"
"On the way to our provincial CDC, it is estimated that it will arrive at 5 o'clock in the morning, and the CDC of City B will send the specimens at the same time and ask the provincial CDC to give investigation assistance. ”
Director Zhu at one end of the conference table thought for a moment and began to assign tasks, "Okay, the epidemic emergency response team will set off now and go to City B, and the testing personnel of our provincial disease control laboratory will make the results as quickly as possible and feedback the results to the scene in time." ”
Director Zhu looked around, and all the members of the emergency team were sitting next to him, and everyone nodded, "Okay, no problem." ”
Nan Zhiqiao also bowed slightly, agreeing.

After the meeting at the CDC in Province G, it was already more than ten o'clock in the evening, and the members of the emergency response team packed up their salutes and prepared to rush to City B.
In the compound of the Center for Disease Control and Prevention in Province G, at eleven o'clock at night, a minibus stopped in the drizzle, Ye Zhenzhen stood next to the car in the rain, and stopped between Nan Zhiqiao and the minibus, "Senior Nan, do you really want to go to City B alone?"
"I'm not alone," Nan Zhiqiao looked up at the people on the bus, "The colleagues from the G Province Disease Control and Prevention will be with me, and there are a lot of people in the emergency team this time." ”
Ye Zhenzhen was a little anxious, "Do you really want to leave me alone in the provincial disease control? I want to go to City B with you." ”
Nan Zhiqiao thought to himself, this Ye Zhenzhen must be anxious to learn the knowledge of on-site emergency response, but the on-site work is more dangerous, arranging Zhen Zhen in the laboratory, and Nan Zhiqiao also has the selfishness to protect Ye Zhenzhen, but he still explained: " The test results of the laboratory have a guiding effect on the on-site work, you stay here first, assist the laboratory work, and at the same time understand what are the similarities and differences between their G Province CDC and our laboratory, analyze the sequence results of the anthrax strain of this epidemic, call me in time, I will go to City B to see first, if necessary, I will let you go. ”
Ye Zhenzhen hesitated for a long time, and squeezed out a sentence, "Senior Nan, you go alone, I'm worried about your safety......"
Although the voice was small, but the affection was sincere, Nan Zhiqiao was stunned for a moment, a smile bloomed at the corner of his eyebrow, and he gently patted Ye Zhenzhen's shoulder, and comforted: "It's okay, I have dealt with this situation many times, I have a sense of self-protection, and there are safety protection measures, no problem." ”
Facing Nan Zhiqiao's slightly promising explanation, Ye Zhenzhen's heart gradually relaxed, and her body moved to the side, giving way to a distance, and letting Nan Zhiqiao get into the car.
On the bus, Nan Zhiqiao looked at Ye Zhenzhen who waved goodbye in the drizzle, and couldn't help but make a gesture of "hurry up and go back to rest", until the car turned and left the central compound, and the other party could not be seen, a middle-aged man sitting next to Nan Zhiqiao asked with a smile: "Director Nan, this business trip is a husband and wife?"
Nan Zhiqiao smiled slightly, "Not yet, but soon." ”

At five o'clock in the morning, the specimens from the CDC in City B were successfully delivered to the CDC laboratory in Province G, and Ye Zhenzhen followed the laboratory staff of the Provincial CDC into the laboratory to participate in the testing of the specimens.
The testing instruments of the G Provincial Disease Control Laboratory are very advanced, there are several instruments that are better than those of the Nanzhiqiao experimental group, it is an advanced high-throughput detector that has just come out recently, and the amount of one-time testing samples is currently the most on the market.
The staff of the G-province CDC laboratory in charge of this experiment is a man in his thirties, named Zhou Yanan, the man is thin and tall, wearing black-framed glasses, very gentle, facing the Chinese CDC expert Ye Zhenzhen's slightly surprised eyes, said: "Our G province CDC has a testing task issued by the state, and the daily work of the test volume is relatively large, so the instruments bought are the maximum throughput." ”
"Oh, the throughput is larger than the national CDC laboratory, and we usually don't have many samples, mainly for emergency testing and scientific research, and the general throughput can meet the requirements. How do you deal with this kind of emergency specimen that you receive in Province G?" Ye Zhenzhen began to ask modestly and studiously.
"First use PCR to quickly identify the pathogen, and at the same time isolate and culture according to the type of pathogen, today's specimen is highly suspected of Bacillus anthracis, so first use PCR to detect the specific gene of Bacillus anthracis, and at the same time mark the specimen to inoculate the agar plate and isolate the anthrax colony. Zhou Yanan took the sent specimen, put it in the biological safety cabinet, and replied to Ye Zhenzhen while carrying out the disinfection work before the experiment.
"Well, it's the same as the national CDC. As soon as Ye Zhenzhen talked about the experiment, she felt that the feeling between everyone suddenly narrowed up, and the work being done was done before.
"Our CDC in Province G has also been trained in the national CDC, of course, the operation process is the same, I was trained in Director Nan's experimental group back then, and I didn't see you Teacher Ye at that time?"
"I just arrived in the experimental group this year. ”
"Oh, I see, no wonder I haven't seen it before. ”
The two chatted for a day, the sample has been put into the PCR machine, and it will take another two hours to get the results, and then the next step is to plate and isolate the colonies, Ye Zhenzhen did not interfere, just watched Wang Yanan of the provincial disease control operate alone, after the marking and inoculation, put it into the incubator, and wait for twelve hours to grow colonies visible to the naked eye.
