Chapter 809: Professor Z?

Whether the spores can be eliminated has always been the most important indicator to measure various disinfection and sterilization methods.

At present, the top one in this area is probably the German company Octex, which uses the environmental sterilization disinfectant in the vaccine production workshop is currently the world's strongest spore killing disinfectant, and its main component is hydrogen peroxide silver ions.

Following the discovery of X-0172's bacterial invasion, a batch of space customization versions of these anticides were imported from the Lunar Palace. However, even so, this kind of thing is not a problem to use to disinfect the Xiaguang or the space module, but it is definitely not good to use it on people.

In the face of spores parasitic in the human body, even if a large number of international experts were stationed on the Moon Palace, there was still no good way.

For now, the research seems to be deadlocked.

Lu Zhou felt that if he didn't do something, he was afraid that even if he waited another 90 days, it would be difficult to see satisfactory results.

With the metabolic extract he got from Professor Liu, Lu Zhou did not return to the dean's office, but went straight to the third basement floor of the Jinling Institute for Advanced Study, that is, his private laboratory.

After closing the calm, Lu Zhou sat at the desk, put the metabolic extract in the glass test tube on the corner of the table, and then called up the paper released by the research team on the Moon Palace from the computer and read it for a long time, and finally sighed softly.

β€œβ€¦β€¦ Unfortunately, biology is not my specialty, and even if I wanted to, I couldn't help it. ”

"Is it true that you can only turn to the wisdom of a higher civilization?"

Looking at the reagent on the table, Lu Zhou pondered for a while and closed his eyes.

"System, is there any way to kill X-0172 bacterial spores?"

When he opened his eyes again, a pale blue strip of light slowly passed through the field of vision, converging into a dialog box that appeared in front of him.

[Solution to eliminate X-0172 bacteria parasitic in the human body]

【Points Required: 10,000 points】

"Ten thousand points?!"

Seeing this number, Lu Zhou almost didn't fall off the chair.

If he remembers correctly, all the points on his body add up to only 4835 points.

As soon as he thought of this, he couldn't help but start to doubt his life a little.

Is this a tough bacterium?

He had saved up mission points for so many years, but it was not enough to redeem a solution......

Wait a minute......

However, at this moment, Lu Zhou suddenly thought of something and slapped his head suddenly.

"Mom, why did I forget?"

The pricing for a question is based on the content of the question. If you ask about the solution of the whole problem, the integrals required are naturally extremely expensive, but if you break the problem into many parts and ask only about the solution of one of the steps, the required integrals are relatively less exaggerated.

The bottleneck facing the international research team is not how to kill the X-0172 bacteria, but how to kill the spores of the X-0172 bacteria.

Therefore, he just needs to think differently......

"System, is there any way to stop the X-0172 bacteria from producing spores?"

The reason why X-0172 bacteria are so difficult to kill is that when attacked, they actively form spores to protect themselves. Even physical means such as high temperature, high pressure, ultraviolet rays, and even radiation are difficult to kill, let alone the antibodies produced by the organism itself.

Therefore, the key to getting rid of X-0172 bacteria is how to avoid spore formation!

As long as its active defense mechanism is dissolved, it will only take a few minutes to kill it on the premise that the antibody has been found.

After a brief pause, a pale blue dialog resurfaced in Lu Zhou's field of vision.

This time, the price offered by the system is much easier to accept.

[Protocol to prevent X-0172 bacteria from forming spores.] 】

[Points required: 2500 points.] 】

2500 points.

That's about half of all his points.

Although he was a little distressed, for the sake of the future of earth civilization, and for the urgent task in his task bar, Lu Zhou gritted his teeth and reached out to select the exchange button.

"Redeem!"

Almost as soon as his index finger touched the option, a huge stream of information hit his brain like a tidal wave, washing over every inch of his scalp.

For Lu Zhou, this feeling of instilling knowledge directly into the brain has not been experienced for a long time.

It's like an unknown corner of the brain is written with memories that don't belong to you.

About half a minute passed, and the strange feeling finally dissipated.

Sitting in the chair for almost half an hour, he finally digested the huge amount of information in his brain, and when Lu Zhou opened his eyes again, a flash of realization flashed in his pupils.

"I see......"

Although it may not be realistic for him to design this solution by himself, with his LV6 biochemistry grade and Nobel Prize-level chemistry level, it is not particularly difficult to understand the solution provided by the system.

In a nutshell, in order to prevent X-0172 bacteria from actively hibernating, a special pheromone is mentioned in the system design scheme.

This pheromone is able to trick X-0172 bacteria into thinking they are in a comfortable environment, in order to "avoid producing spores when attacked by antibodies".

β€œβ€¦β€¦ As long as the infected person is injected or the pheromone is taken before taking the antibody, the X-0172 bacteria will be able to give up resistance. ”

Feeling the feeling of knowledge in his brain, Lu Zhou did not hesitate, immediately opened the laptop on the table, glanced at the reagent placed in the corner of the table, and began to edit the paper.

The method of preparing pheromones that block the production of spores by X-0172 bacteria has been given in the solution provided by the system, and there is no need for him to make his own deletions.

As for the effect of X-0172 antibody and metabolite extracts in clinical treatment, Lu Zhou cited several papers published by Professor Leslie and Professor Zhao Shuxuan.

Minutes and seconds passed.

The wall clock on the wall quickly went from morning to afternoon.

Looking at the final finished paper, the corners of Lu Zhou's mouth couldn't help but hook up a satisfied smile.

Speaking of which, this feeling of being single-mindedly devoted to the paper is really a long time coming.

Since the number of titles on his body has increased, there are fewer and fewer scientific research tasks that he needs to complete in person, and many times the work he is responsible for has become the planning of the general direction, rather than participating in specific research tasks.

β€œβ€¦β€¦ When this space race is over, it's good to rest for a while. ”

With a sigh of emotion in his heart, Lu Zhou converted the paper into pdf format, but just as he was about to submit it, he suddenly remembered something.

Wouldn't it be a little too unbelievable for you to say that I, a mathematician, suddenly wrote a biology paper of such a high standard?

Moreover, although the research results were made by him, they were not studied by him after all, but were exchanged through system points.

When the time comes, if he wins the Nobel Prize for this research, he will still feel a little embarrassed in his heart.

After thinking for a while, Lu Zhou's heart suddenly moved slightly, and he pressed the backspace key to delete the author's name, and knocked down the letter "Z" on it.

"Perfect."

Looking at this paper and smiling with satisfaction, Lu Zhou opened the Arxiv website and created a new account to upload.

It's too cumbersome to explain.

Simply, just hang a vest and throw it on.
