Chapter 129: Training and Refining Medicine
In Huang Xu's residence, Li Jue was wearing a mask and was checking his pulse, and after careful questioning, he said to Ma Qiang, "It is indeed tuberculosis, my teacher once said that this disease accumulates over the years, gradually stagnates, and even dies, which is caused by the invasion of evil insects, and can only be slowly recuperated, but there is no cure." ”
Huang Zhong couldn't help but look at Ma Qiang a little nervously, and Ma Qiang thought about Li Jue's words just now on the side, don't say, if the evil insects are changed to Mycobacterium tuberculosis, this is basically right, but unfortunately although the ancients discovered optical principles such as small hole imaging, because there is no glass, there is naturally no microscope, otherwise they would have known what these so-called evil insects are.
Wait, now that there is glass, let's just make a microscope, Li Jue of the province looked at himself like a resentful woman, as if he owed him something.
Ma Qiang said to Huang Zhong, "Don't worry, Hansheng, I can cure this disease, just now Doctor Li is right, this disease is indeed an evil thing invading the human body, but our school calls him a virus or bacteria, this tuberculosis is caused by a bacterium called Mycobacterium tuberculosis, there is a medicine called sulfonamide that can treat this disease, Doctor Li don't leave these days, I will let Yan Fa make a microscope for you, you can just study what bacteria are." ”
"Microscope?" Li Jue had heard Ma Qiang talk about this thing before, and the resentment on his face was suddenly gone, leaving only two starry eyes and an expectant face.
Uncle... Don't do that, it's disgusting.
Huang Zhong saw that Ma Qiang really had a way to treat Huang Xu, and asked with a fist, "I don't know where to find this medicine with the same surname as a certain family?" Even if it is the end of the earth, a certain family dares to take it back. ”
Not to mention, with Huang Zhong's force value, it shouldn't be a problem for him to fight a polar bear and come back.
At this time, a polar bear in the Arctic suddenly shivered and cooled down again?
"Sulfonamide is a chemical drug... You just understand that it is a kind of elixir. Ma Qiang thought about it and felt that it was easier to understand these ancients in this way, and the alchemy in the East and the alchemy in the West are the origin of chemistry.
"Pills? Could it be a fairy formula? There seemed to be more stars in Li Jue's eyes.
"It's... In terms of effect, it's really about the same, Doctor Li, don't look at me like this, I'll take you with me to make this medicine, but you should know that this is from the secret book of our school..."
"Sir! Please bow down to the students! ”
Shrewd!
Huang Zhong heard that Ma Qiang was going to use the immortal prescription to treat his son, and he only felt a sour feeling on the tip of his nose, although he didn't know what this thing called sulfonamide was, but when he thought about it, he knew that it must be an extremely precious thing.
If you treat me as a countryman, I will repay me as a countryman!
Ma Qiang drew a sketch casually, called Yan Fa, who had been clamoring for the project, and asked him to take Lu Yun to get the microscope and telescope out, and he took Li Jue to his laboratory, and called Lu Qinglime and Lu Qingcheng.
"To put it simply, sulfonamides are made by combining chlorosulfonic acid, ammonia, aniline, heavy alkali and acetic acid." Ma Qiang started cramming teaching again, and said while writing on the blackboard, "Now we start to divide labor and cooperate, first make chlorosulfonic acid, green orange, you take your group to prepare the materials needed to make sulfuric acid, lime, you go to prepare soda ash, and then use water to make sodium hydroxide and carbonic acid, after doing it, make hydrochloric acid and sodium bisulfate with green orange, Doctor Li, you follow me to make aniline, start acting." ”
Although Li Jue was a little confused, he still obeyed Ma Qiang's command, and Ma Qiang didn't let him do too complicated work, at most, he washed a test tube, got an alcohol lamp or something, and kept dictating some of the modern medical knowledge he knew in later generations.
Sulfonamides can indeed be made by chemical combination, but it is also very troublesome, Ma Qiang is ready to let Li Jue stay in the Red Star Camp for a long time, making sulfonamides and using a microscope to study bacteria and viruses is a good excuse.
As for why Li Jue stayed... Now that the formation of the Volunteer Army has begun, it is time for the field medical staff to start training.
Sulfur is used to make sulfuric acid, and sulfur dioxide can be generated by igniting sulfur directly, and then sulfur dioxide is injected into pure water to become sulfurous acid, and then oxygen is introduced to synthesize sulfuric acid.
Sulfuric acid and salt can be synthesized into hydrochloric acid, and sodium hydroxide can be synthesized into sodium bisulfate, and hydrochloric acid and sodium bisulfate can be synthesized into chlorosulfonic acid.
All in all, why the three acids and two bases are so important, it can be seen from making sulfonamides, too many compounds are added or subtracted from these five things.
And Ma Qiang went to find the iron-making furnace, scraped some coal-burning tar left after the coal burned from the bottom of the iron-making furnace, and saw that Ma Qiang did not use a plant medicine, but all these gold and stone things, Li Jue's eyes were straight.
Seeing Li Jue's appearance, Ma Qiang suddenly had some suspicions, the future Chinese medicine likes to use all kinds of strange things, and it won't have anything to do with himself....
"Some wine, some vinegar, ethyl carbonate and some oil~" Ma Qiang hummed a messy song, but the movements in his hands were fast and steady, and after finishing it, he looked at Lu Qingcheng.
Ma Qiang asked Lu Qingcheng to do sulfuric acid because she is good at archery, her hands are extremely stable, and the sulfuric acid and a series of acids behind her are extremely corrosive, if your hands shake a little, it will be fun.
Not to mention that Ma Qiang took this team to toss in the laboratory, and the three thousand volunteers outside were quickly gathered.
The 3,000 volunteers were divided into six battalions, one battalion of 500 people, and the six battalion commanders were Xian Yufu, Xian Yuyin, Yan Rou, Huang Zhong, Lin Hai and Guo Jin.
In the end, Lin Huan did not let Lin Hu and Guo Yin go to the Volunteer Army, and Ma Qiang also understood that they all knew that this Volunteer was really going to go to the battlefield later, and if it was not necessary, it was better not to let both sons participate in the battle.
This is not only a father's selfishness, but also the original practice of the Han army.
Among the six battalions, Yan Rou's battalion is a cavalry battalion, and the other battalions are infantry battalions.
Ma Qiang knew that he didn't understand military affairs, so he completely delegated power to these six people, and only wrote some of the military training methods he knew in later generations for their reference, but whether those military training methods in later generations were applicable to the late Han Dynasty, Ma Qiang couldn't tell, he just hoped to help a little.
After the end of the quarantine, other displaced people began to participate in the road construction project, and with these new forces, the speed of road construction has been significantly accelerated.
In the Red Star Camp, they are well fed and sleep peacefully, and the only thing that makes these homeless people feel miserable is the literacy class at night.
Anyway, the literacy work slowly began.
"The materials are finally complete, and now you can synthesize sulfonamides!" Ma Qiang took a breath and looked at the bottles and cans in front of him, and now he was one step away.
And Li Jue on the side is about to crash, he really doesn't understand what the medical theory of these things is, and according to Ma Qiang, most of these compound materials can actually be used to treat diseases, such as dilute hydrochloric acid can treat some stomach problems, sodium bicarbonate melted in water can even treat some gynecological diseases, but why is this? ?
Ma Qiang said that I don't know why, I just looked at it more when I was studying chemistry, but there is still a big gap between chemistry and pharmacology.
