Petri dishes, reagent bottles, beakers, flasks, test tube racks.
This is the biological experiment center located in the Northern Capital, the receiving end of the earth of alien biochemical technology, since the Northern Capital and the Resistance began to cooperate, it has become the most important biological experimental base in China.
Beidu attaches great importance to the experimental base, and has invested a lot of manpower and material resources to build the experimental base into the world's most high-end biochemical base.
If the research of planetary engines is most valued by the Northern Capital, then the cooperation in biochemical technology must be ranked second, and in the hearts of some people, absorbing biochemical technology is more important than studying planetary engines!
This is not surprising, the planetary engine is so high-end, even the aliens have lost their manufacturing technology, but the biochemical technology is really in the hands of the resistance group, and can be taught to humans step by step from shallow to deep.
To this end, high-end talents from all over the country gathered in the Northern Capital, and the only task was to understand the technology from the aliens as soon as possible.
In recent years, various disciplines have been subdivided and subdivided, and even high-end talents have their own focuses, some are good at viruses, some specialize in genes, and some are inclined to medicine.
These experts and scholars from different disciplines watched the same video, but each had their own perceptions, because they had already made achievements in their respective disciplines, and the resistance group also started from the most superficial technology, the laboratory quickly came up with practical results.
The first breakthrough was in gene technology, which involves cutting-edge fields such as genetic analysis, genetic recombination, gene activation sequence, and genetic adjustment.
Genetic technology is not a new topic, but not much has been achieved in this area, and there is a lack of understanding of ineffective genes.
However, genetic analysis technology solves this problem, and the genetic research group of the laboratory uses extraterrestrial technology to re-comb the human genome and obtain a large number of first-hand experimental data.
What's more, this technology can check the genes of fertilized eggs to find problems in genes, fundamentally eliminate the appearance of genetic diseases and birth defects, and in the foreseeable future, it can also be treated through extended technologies such as gene matching - this technology can not only be treated in the embryonic stage, but even the genes of adults can be adjusted and repaired as long as they are developed to a certain extent.
The military believes that this is the technology used by aliens to modify captives, and hopes that the laboratory's genetic research team will reach this level as soon as possible.
Of course, the military just hopes for this, and they also know that the research group will not be able to reach that level for a while.
Breakthroughs in gene technology have also led to the explosive development of a series of related technologies, the most important of which is cloning technology.
From a certain point of view, human beings have mastered cloning technology as early as the nineties of the last century, but this technology has never really matured, and problems such as premature aging and low fertility have been plaguing researchers around the world.
However, genetic analysis technology can solve these problems, and the research team only needs enough time.
In addition, this technology has also paved the way for organ cloning, so that animals can grow human cloned organs is about to become a reality, not only heart, liver, lungs and other internal organs, but also arms and legs, and even a bone or a muscle can be solved by cloning.
An expert predicted that cloning is only the first step, and the ultimate goal of genetic research is to completely control genes, and in the short term, the problem of transplanted organ donors can only be solved by cloning, and one day in the future, human beings will not have to transplant organs, but let the diseased organs gradually wither and be replaced by new organs that grow back in the body, even if the limbs are amputated, they can grow again......
This last sentence is still a rhetoric for the time being, but the promise of gene technology is undoubted, and it will bring earth-shaking changes to mankind.
Medical cloning is only one aspect, and more importantly, humans can use cloning technology to reproduce extinct creatures one by one!
Today, the earth has been ravaged by giant insects for more than eight years, during which most of the wild animals have been wiped out, and the only large mammals that exist are those raised by humans.
When the genetic technology mastered by human beings reaches a certain level, it is completely possible to reconstruct the genes of extinct organisms through genetic recombination and gene activation, so that they can reappear in the world!
Of course, it is far more difficult to do this than the regeneration of severed limbs, but it is always a thought.
There is also a technology that has to be said is genetically modified, benefiting from the breakthrough of gene technology, genetically modified technology has also been greatly improved, the laboratory has made the willow branches grow rice ears, and after harvesting can also grow again, as long as the nutrition keeps up in time, it can be harvested every more than a month.
According to laboratory measurements, a five-meter-tall willow rice plant can harvest 500 to 700 kilograms of rice at a time, which is only a little less than the yield of one mu of hybrid rice.
However, willow rice does not grow out of thin air, such a plant has very high requirements for the environment, and there can be no lack of water and fertilizer during the heading period, otherwise the hair will not want to receive one.
The lab's next plan is to get rhizobia to the willow rice as well, reducing the rice's dependence on artificial fertilization.
The success of willow rice is just the beginning, and the lab plans to conduct similar experiments on representative plants across the country, especially those that grow in large numbers in the wild.
When these genetically modified plants come out of the laboratory, the food problem that plagues mankind will be solved most thoroughly, and the farming cost of farmers will also be greatly reduced.
Experts believe that it will not be long before the laboratory can cultivate plants that are planted directly in a vacuum, making Beiyuezhou look different.
Other experts are trying to transfer animal genes to plants, so that plants can grow meat directly to fill the gap in meat supply.
Unbeknownst to them, bug trees have always been an important source of food for aliens.
The research group will also carry out similar experiments on other food crops and various fruits and vegetables in the future, well, the workload is very large, the research group has a long way to go, and it may take several generations, but the wine pond meat forest is not a forest me, and the prospect must be a bright road to heaven!
However, discordant voices can be heard at any time, the current research of the research group is limited to grain and vegetables, but there are already people who have opened their brains, planning to let the plants grow directly oil, salt, sauce and vinegar or something, for which a formal application was written, but this too avant-garde application was ruthlessly rejected by the experimental center.
Human beings need genetically modified plants, but they only plan to solve the food problem, and do not plan to replace light industry with plants, let alone follow the old path of aliens.
