Chapter Twenty-Six: The Gamble of Vivid Color

In the drug laboratory of Yuzhou University, Jin Yutang sneezed fiercely.

Compared with other young masters of the family, Jin Yutang can be regarded as a veritable otaku. As Jin Zhongming's only son, Jin Yutang did not have the pressure of competition with his siblings for family power, on the contrary, he preferred to get rid of his father's control, engage in drug research that he loved, and become a great medicine hunter is his dream of Jin Dashao.

The blood sample that Yunkai handed over to him made Jin Yutang completely stay in the laboratory. He had never seen such an active toxin, and it was not wrong to say that it was a living poison, so he took a drop of blood from a sample and dripped it into a test tube containing non-toxic blood, and the blood in that test tube was all infected, and the concentration of the toxin was almost unattenuated.

The chemical analysis of modern poisons began in the 19th century, and in 1814, Ophela published the book "The Properties of Poisons", so he is recognized as the founder of modern poisons, and by 1830, almost all the components of inorganic chemicals could be known through chemical analysis, and organic poisons could not be analyzed at that time. In 1851, Belgian chemist Jean Servista began a milestone in the chemical analysis of organic poisons when he extracted alkaloids from drug toxins while investigating a murder case.

It took Jin Yutang more than two weeks to try to extract the alkaloids from the sample, but failed. When he approached his mentor, Dr. Lu Wanxin, for advice, Dr. Lu inadvertently mentioned that the ingredients that work in organic drugs are not all alkaloids, but may also be other amino acids, peptides or other trace elements.

A word woke up the dreamer, and Jin Yutang began to suspect that the July Fire Toxin was a bioactive peptide. Active peptide is a small molecule protein, easy to be digested and absorbed by the human body, the magic of this toxin is that it has a strong self-replication ability, once the toxin enters the blood, it will enzymatically hydrolyze the food protein in the blood into a small molecule active peptide with the same properties as the prototoxin. In layman's terms, toxins feed on food proteins in the blood, and after they are full, they reproduce themselves.

In order to demonstrate this judgment, Jin Yutang prepared another set of non-toxic blood samples. The samples isolated various components of the blood, including red blood cells, white blood cells, and food proteins. Sure enough, the toxin content was significantly lower in the group of samples deficient in food protein, suggesting that the toxin reproduction pathway is food protein.

The nature and reproduction method of the July Flowing Fire were clarified, but Jin Yutang made a difficulty. How can there be less food protein in the blood of a normal person? As long as people still eat, especially legumes, they will provide a lot of protein to the blood, and these proteins that the body needs are also toxin food. You can't tell a poisoned person to skip a meal, can you? Before starving toxins, people have been starved to death long ago, not to mention toxins still can't starve to death.

The method of detoxification must also start from the study of this active peptide toxin itself - of course, this is the detoxification logic of Western medicine. In fact, Uncle Li, the Chinese medicine doctor in Long Yan's mouth, had long asked Long Xingyun to eat less beans, which could be regarded as the same goal. After all, Jin Yutang was only a junior in college, and before there was a further solution, he had to compile the research results into a report and hand it over to the person in charge of the Yunkai project to find a way.

After thinking about it for a while, Yun Kai secretly took his own blood and went to the sample analysis room with the test tube. He tried to mix his own blood with Long Xingyun's blood sample in different proportions, and finally confirmed one thing, that is, to completely detoxify Long Xingyun, at least one-fifth of his body's blood was needed.

This made his idea of secretly injecting Long Xingyun with his blood as an antidote. The total amount of blood in the human body is about eight percent of body weight, and a person weighing sixty kilograms has nearly five kilograms of blood in his body, that is to say, in order to relieve the July Flame in Long Xingyun's body, at least one kilogram of blood is needed from Yunkai, how can such a large amount of blood pretend to be another antidote? Unless he explained the direct blood transfusion, even if he was overturned at that time, how would he explain the prescription when people asked him?

However, the blood mixing experiment was not without results. Bioactive peptide is a multifunctional compound that is bounded between protein and amino acid, and according to the different arrangement and combination of amino acids, the functions produced by the human body are completely different. The toxic peptides in Long Xingyun's blood, after encountering Yunkai's drug-free body blood, the enzymes became peptides of other properties, the specific effect of Yunkai is not clear, but it also provides him with a new detoxification idea, that is, the enzymatic transformation that causes the July Flu Fire Toxin.

To make a figurative analogy, July Liuhuo is a villain who does all kinds of evil, and the way to prevent him from continuing to do evil is to find a master to kill him, or you can let him abandon evil and follow good, but you have to find him a kind and beautiful daughter-in-law before you can influence him. Yunkai's drug-free blood is that kind beauty, and the way to fight poison with poison is to find another villain and die with him.

On the basis of Jin Yutang's report, Yunkai added some of his own judgments and assumptions, and sent them to several insiders at the same time, including Professor Shen, Dr. Lu, Dean Qin, and Su Hang, and even Yao Xingyuan sent a copy. The meaning of sending it to Yao Xingyuan was actually sent to the "King of Southern Medicine" Yao Xiping, and for the sake of Yao Lao and the face of the immortal ginseng, he decided to temporarily forgive Yao Xingyuan for thinking about Suzhou and Hangzhou.

Yao Lao quickly asked his grandson to reply to the email for him, spoke highly of the research conclusions of the two, and proposed that everyone have a meeting, which quickly got everyone's response. Yun Kai secretly had fun in his stomach, this old man Yao was like the master of a lamp in "Shooting the Condor", as soon as he met the villain Qiu Qianren, he would not forgive, and he would not give up if he did not ignite the wicked, and he was more active than him.

Long Xingyun was originally a patient of Su Hang, and after dragging Yun Kai into the water, it became a project of the pharmaceutical laboratory, and inadvertently brought in the important bigwigs of Dean Qin, Professor Shen and Yao Lao, plus a few young people with their own strengths, it can be said that the top elites in the field of medicine in Yudu are concentrated, and the masters are gathered.

It's not because of Long Xingyun's mysterious identity, but because of the incurable disease of July Flowing Fire, just like Mount Everest in the field of mountaineering, it has indeed aroused the interest of a group of medical experts, making people happy to see it.

Considering that Yao Lao was convenient to travel, the meeting place was arranged in Yao Xingyuan's Yukang Clinic, Yao Xingyuan vacated a conference room on the second floor of the clinic, prepared some melons and fruits and refreshments, and arranged for a little girl to make meeting minutes. After a few juniors sat down with their elders, Yao Lao cleared his throat and went straight to the topic and said: "Today, we will call everyone to have a brainstorming meeting, gather ideas, and say what you have ......."

In front of the famous seniors, a few juniors didn't dare to speak, Shen Yan glanced at everyone and said, "I think we can go in two lines." One is the Western medicine route, which continues to analyze the peptide properties of July Liuhuo, confirm which amino acids it is composed of and in what way, and then select the corresponding drugs for experimental verification, which can be handed over to our laboratory to be responsible; The other line is the traditional Chinese medicine route, and this one has to ask Yao Lao and Lao Qin to come out, and you two are experts in this area......"

Qin Ruhai nodded in agreement, glanced at Su Hang and asked, "Su Hang, you are most familiar with this condition, tell me what you think?" ”

"There was a Dr. Li who treated a patient before, and the diagnosis and treatment method mainly started from traditional Chinese medicine, and the prescriptions and curative effects he prescribed, I will contact the patient later, sort it out and send it to you." Su Hang glanced at Yun Kai, thought for a moment and then said: "I myself am only good at acupuncture and moxibustion, and I am not very professional in drug treatment, but I personally agree with Yun Kai's idea of fighting poison with poison before. This case is a specific poisoning, there is no specific antidote, although the idea of finding the corresponding Western medicine is also feasible, but I am worried that the time to find the antidote is too long, and we only have less than half a year. ”

After Su Hang finished speaking, he gently stroked the hair hanging down from his ears, and this action immediately stunned Yao Xingyuan. Although the old man warned him, he just couldn't control his mind, until the old man coughed and came to his senses, and hurriedly said: "Since time is tight, then we must use the method of combining Chinese and Western medicine, use the idea of traditional Chinese medicine to find antidotes, and then use the analysis methods of Western medicine to verify the effectiveness of the drugs......"

Yao Xiping was basically satisfied with his grandson Yao Xingyuan's answer. There are Chinese and Western ideas and pharmacology, but there are no scientific methods and equipment, with the help of modern means to verify the efficacy of traditional Chinese medicine, it is the modernization of traditional Chinese medicine that he has been advocating.

As the actual executors of the July project team, Yunkai and Jin Yutang didn't speak much, and the two discussed it on the way over. When everyone was gossiping about ideas and methods, Jin Yutang took notes in a hurry, and Yun Kai slipped his head and directly used his mobile phone as a voice recorder to record everyone's conversation from beginning to end.

Towards the end of the meeting, Yunkai suggested to Professor Shen Yan that an external expert group be established on the basis of the project team in July, and Shen Yan happily applauded, and Yao Lao became the leader of the expert group as a matter of course. The technical conclusion of the meeting was that the follow-up treatment plan was divided into three ways, Professor Shen led Jin Yutang to continue to study the composition and poisoning mechanism of active peptides, Yao Xiping and his grandson used modern Chinese medicine methods to find an antidote, and Qin Lao Dean took Su Hang and Yun Kai to take the route of attacking poison with poison.

When leaving the Chongqing Bran Clinic, Yao Xingyuan politely sent everyone out and said to Yunkai in a challenging tone: "How is it, are you confident?" If not, I'll leave it to me! ”

"It seems that the little medicine king is in the chest?" Yun Kai looked him up and down for a while, and said with a smile: "Shall we bet on something more?" I haven't thanked you for the ginseng you sent last time, but what do you want to send me this time? ”

"Who loses and who quits?" Yao Xingyuan looked at Su Hang's graceful back, and his eyes burned with blazing flames.

Yun Kai muttered in his heart, did you take the beautiful women who are alive and beautiful as a bet? If you tell this to the stingy girl, even if you win ten times, you won't be able to sing, what kind of swelling will you be?

He had a bad stomach, but his expression was very pure and said: "A word is a certainty!" ”
