Chapter 288: Big Trouble!
"What!" Herbert couldn't believe what he heard!
There was such a big flaw in the laboratory, why didn't he know about it!
The composition of the culture medium is indeed studied by the laboratory, and the colonies are indeed multiplying, but the number of reproduction will die, which is very troublesome.
This means that the laboratory will never be able to expand the population of the colony, and a colony that cannot expand the population will certainly not be commercialized on a large scale, and can only remain in the laboratory as a memorial.
Herbert's heart was chilled all at once!
Herbert hurried to the laboratory to check the colonies and detailed information on the experimental process, and the situation was indeed true.
It has been more than a week since his laboratory got the colonies, and according to the common sense of the exponential multiplication of bacteria and the proportion of colonies dying, the current power generation bacteria should have "burst the pot" a long time ago, and it is absolutely impossible to still have so few!
The members of the lab all had constipated expressions.
Herbert's assistant said: "We tried many things, but they didn't work. ”
Herbert suddenly thought, could it be that the newly born power generation bacteria secrete some substances that cause the death of mature power generation bacteria?
Herbert immediately arranged experiments to distinguish between old and new colonies according to the number of colonies of propagation, and even if it was a culture agent, a new culture agent was used.
But Herbert had thought of a solution, and the people in the laboratory had already thought of it.
The assistant said helplessly: "We have tried. ”
"Try it!" Herbert said.
Under Herbert's supervision, new experiments began again.
The laboratory separates the old and new colonies and uses a completely new medium.
It is still the new colony that should be alive and alive, and the old colony should be dead, and the death rate and reproduction rate are basically the same.
Is it because the strain is not good?
Herbert calls Kuka directly and gets the tasseled phone that Kuka used.
Without saying a word, the laboratory directly drilled the mobile phone to take the colonies and bacterial liquid, and then carried out new discussion experiments and cultures.
After a few days, the results were exactly the same as the previous ones!
The colony population is guaranteed in a certain number and is very stable and cannot be increased.
Herbert swallowed and slumped in his chair.
Now that I think about it, the paper he published in a hurry is a huge joke!
Herbert realized that the Life Sciences and Medical Laboratories of the Origin Group were just terrifying!
Kuka called Herbert at this point.
Knowing that the microbial battery will soon be commercially available, KUKA is in a very good mood.
KUKA is already preparing for next year's IP13 and said: "Mr. Professor, I have to urge you that our engineers have already started the design of IP13, and we will take into account the location of the microbial battery." But Mr. Professor, we need an exact number, I mean I need to know how many slots we are going to reserve for the microbial battery. ”
IP12 sales have suffered a serious setback recently, and Kuka can't help but find the glory of Pingguo's mobile phone from IP13, so Pingguo's laboratory has begun to design IP13, and one of the most important joints is the location of the microbial battery compartment.
After Kuka finished speaking, the phone suddenly fell silent.
Herbert didn't know how to answer.
He only told KUKA a few days ago that the IP13 will definitely use microbial batteries, and today's situation is that the IP13 can indeed be used with any batteries, but there can only be two......
Because the power generation bacteria in the laboratory are only enough for two mobile phones.
This week, the laboratory has used all kinds of methods, but there is no way to expand the population.
Herbert suspects that the Origin Group had anticipated this, so he was not at all nervous or responsive to the news when he presented his paper at Stanford.
"Mr. Professor? Is it a bad signal? Kuka urged.
Herbert had only the truth, "Mr. Kuka...... I'm really sorry, but I personally feel very sorry...... In the course of the experiment, we ran into some trouble. ”
Kuka thought it was just a small trouble, but now that the power generation bacteria can multiply, and the culture medium is also available, most of the troubles have been solved, so what is a little trouble?
Kuka smiled and said, "Don't worry, Mr. Professor. What we need now is only the amount of electricity generated by the bacteria per unit volume, not the immediate use of microbial batteries. We still have a year to prepare. ”
Herbert was very embarrassed and said, "Mr. Kuka, I would like to say that our experiments are in serious trouble. Let's be honest with you, there is no way for our microbial colonies to grow, and as much as we get, we are now as much as we get. The number of new power generation bacteria will die of power generation bacteria, which ...... It's a serious problem, and we've tried a lot of things to change it. In this case, we have no way to commercialize it. ”
"What!" After getting the news, Kuka was completely stunned!
Colonies cannot expand colonies!
Herbert lamented: "Until we find a solution, we have no way to commercialize the power generation bacteria. ”
While Herbert was calling, the lab technician hurriedly ran over and said, "Mr. Professor! Mr. Professor! Oh no! The colonies we isolated died in a large area! ”
"Mr. Kuka, I have an emergency in the laboratory, so let's do it first, come down and get in touch." Herbert hurried to the inside of the laboratory.
Kuka's brain, who hung up the phone, is now blank.
He certainly knows the seriousness of the problem.
The more Kuka thought about it, the more something was absolutely wrong.
Ionized bacteria are so amazing and so easy to use, as the owner of the technology, the Origin Group really does not set up any technical protective measures?
How easily Herbert's lab got ionized bacteria and then could multiply, commercially?
Now the trouble is coming!
However, Pingguo only publicized the use of microbial batteries with great fanfare two weeks ago, and now it's okay! It doesn't work! Isn't that a slap in the face?
KUKA originally hoped to release a sketch of the microbial battery compartment in a few days, attracting the attention of global consumers to Pingguo, so that everyone would give up buying tassels and leave the desire to replace the machine for next year.
Kuka stood in his office in despair, not knowing what to do.
Big trouble is yet to come.
When Herbert entered the lab, he discovered a mass mass death of colonies.
This phenomenon is very strange, it stands to reason that the laboratory has figured out the composition of the culture medium, and the colonies have not been abnormal in the past few days, why is there a sudden large-scale death today?
Time ticked by, and all the colonies in Herbert's lab died!
