Chapter 264: The Pyramid
In the next first floor B area, Chen Yang saw the three doctors who were already standing there waiting, and the two sides shook hands with each other, and they were not very polite to each other.
Chen Yang, as the boss, naturally doesn't need to be polite, and the three doctors focus on research, and they are not people who pay attention to human feelings, let alone say polite words. Dr. Freeman pointed to the large freezer chamber placed vertically under the platform, and said sternly: "This new type of freezer cabin has been assembled by the foundry, and the storage capacity of each set can provide oxygen and nutrient consumption for a single person for about 24 hours, and if the power is off, it can also continue to provide 12 hours of electrical output...... If you switch to freezing mode, after previous tests, there will be no harm to the human body for at least the current two months, and according to the instructions you gave, then the human body can be frozen for at least ten years...... Honestly, the value of this new type of freezer is very high......"
Gordon. Freeman is full of praise, although the cryonics have not really been tested for more than five years, and its freezing technology is not really guaranteed, but the technical level of the cryonics is extremely rare and valuable.
For decades, countless biologists around the world have been committed to exploring the fundamental causes of threats to life under low temperature conditions, and have studied the protective effect of antifreeze substances in antifreeze organisms, as well as the freezing of cells.
The reason why life needs oxygen is to use oxidation power to decompose organic molecules, so as to obtain huge energy, without oxygen, it is impossible to decompose organic molecules, and naturally there is no way to obtain energy. Then death is it.
However, no matter how important oxygen is in the process of life activities, it cannot hide its oxidative decomposition, which will destroy the essence of life molecules, especially when the cells in the living body actively use oxygen. It is accompanied by the formation of a large number of free radicals that are more reactive than molecular oxygen.
Under normal circumstances, cells use a series of enzymes to directly or indirectly fight the damage caused by oxygen and its free radicals.
But as the temperature drops, so does the speed of this destruction, which should be a good thing.
However, a good thing is always accompanied by a big bad thing, because the catalysis of the enzyme accelerates the ability to resist, and as the activity of the enzyme drops sharply, it decreases sharply, and the originally balanced chemical reaction eventually falls to the side that destroys.
Life itself as an ordered structure. The slightest mishap in the pool will collapse.
Such an unbalanced chemical reaction will only make the frozen life die gradually, and it will not be able to meet the requirements of freezing at all.
As a member of the earth's creatures, human beings are even more fragile, and the slow progress of cryonics technology for decades lies in the fact that there is no good way to solve this balanced chemical reaction imbalance.
As for the other ice crystal damage. It's the nature of water.
water, is a kind of crystallization after solidification. The temperature is too low in winter, which sometimes causes the water pipes to be frozen and burst, and for the same reason, most of the structure of the human body is water, once the temperature is too low. It causes the cells to freeze and expand, resulting in a disastrous outcome that is not ideal and no one wants to see.
In addition to this reason, the rigid structure of ice crystals also excludes other substances. The concentration of solutes in fluids that have not yet been frozen rises dramatically, and excessive salt concentrations and harmful substances can directly damage cells.
With so many insurmountable difficulties, it is no wonder that biologists in so many countries have spent decades not really solving them.
However, this cryochamber and the corresponding glycerol C-PX01 antifreeze synthetic substance have solved several shortcomings of the appeal very well, making it possible for the human body to freeze for a long time!
Although it has not yet undergone a lot of testing, and it is not possible to fully guarantee the safety of this process, the three doctors present are very aware of the value of this.
Even if it is a cryochamber that has not been fully tested, and glycerol C-PX01 antifreeze synthetic, as long as this technology is announced, I believe that winning the Nobel Prize is just a trivial matter, and the large investment requirements that follow, and countless people who want to try it, will definitely be a jaw-dropping number.
As soon as I thought of this, Gordon. Dr. Freeman himself felt a deep silence for the Alcor Life Extension Foundation in Arizona and the Cryonics Agency in Michigan.
I'm sorry, but you're still working on it, but we're already ready to put it into use, and I'm sorry that the gap is so big.
Hear Gordon. Dr. Freeman's words, Chen Yang muttered, "Is it safe over there at the foundry?" ”
"This ......"
Gordon. Freeman only pays attention to the research and equipment needs of the real room, where do you know this, but Liu Helan, who participated in the whole process on the side, suddenly said: "I am in charge of the foundry, and everything is in accordance with the procedure, so there should be no problem." ”
"Should there be no problem?"
Chen Yang sighed: "What I want is a guarantee, not an ambiguous answer." Although all the parts orders come from European countries, after all, the final assembly process needs to be carried out, and the foundry must be closely monitored and must not leak the relevant technology of the freezer. ”
"Yes."
The three of them nodded yes, only Wang Rui disagreed, he had also been to the foundry before, the freezer cabin is composed of thousands of parts, as long as the core technology is not leaked, even if it is handed over to others, I am afraid that it will be difficult to crack the key point. What's more, the freezer is important, but glycerin C-PX01 is the most important core, and without this thing, the freezer is useless.
After visiting Area B, several people continued to lead the team and led Chen Yang to the next Area C.
Area C is used as a warehouse for material equipment, and it is also the only large entrance, which stores a large amount of food and water resources, reserves enough food for 200 people to eat for a month, and also places a lot of research equipment and parts to ensure that if there is a problem with the relevant equipment, there are corresponding parts that can be repaired immediately.
As for the last D area on the first floor, there is nothing to see in the restaurants, lounges, etc., Chen Yang directly transferred to the second floor.
Shen Lang had introduced it before, in addition to the three doctors who were in charge of the research, there were also one hundred and twenty-three ordinary researchers in the entire real room, but there were not many researchers in the first floor, it turned out to be on the second floor.
The second floor of the real yàn room is only divided into area A and area B, and in addition to the ordinary office rooms and separate offices in area A, there are also small professional real rooms separated from each other by bulletproof glass walls.
As the group walked down the aisle, there were researchers in white uniforms coming and going, and looking through the glass on both sides of the aisle, there were many researchers doing real work in the real yàn room inside.
"Based on the information you provided, we have already started the first step of the study......"
Glie. Dr. Foyle, taking off his glasses and wiping them with a handkerchief, said calmly, "It's just that the progress is not very big." ”
Chen Yang immediately understood what he meant, and said slowly: "I will give you the next information, don't be too anxious." ”
The three doctors looked at each other and did not speak.
Being hired by Andres Technology, at the beginning, it may have been really because of the huge commission remuneration, but with the deepening of research, it is now attractive for them to continue to stay here, and it is because the remuneration is inappropriate, it should be said that Chen Yang successfully hooked their interest.
The speed of the group's progress did not stop, and they quickly walked through the aisle and left Area A and entered Area B.
Area B here is not as relaxed as Area A just now, after a laser channel, there is also a liquid helium defense that can reduce the temperature by hundreds of degrees in a minute, all for the sake of the safety of Area B.
Just because in the future, Area B will undertake most of the research on the nature of extreme dangers, and if you do not take isolation and protective measures in advance, it will be too late to regret it when unforeseen dangers have passed.
The isolation method of the second layer B is also outrageously tight.
Now because it has not really started to operate, Chen Yang and the others have omitted the disinfection process five times, and when Area B is operational in the future, all personnel who come in and out must go through strict disinfection measures and wear bulky protective clothing with their own oxygen supply before they can step into Area B.
The entire B area, all tightly sealed rooms, the internal space is designed with negative pressure to prevent any gas from leaking out, between the four separate rooms, there are seven layers of high-standard bulletproof glass, although the cost is huge, but it can withstand the close-range shooting of the machine gun without hindrance, even the RPG is estimated to be unable to completely shoot the seven-layer thick bulletproof glass.
"Alright, three doctors, go about your own business."
Chen Yang stopped, turned around and said.
Since they didn't want them to accompany them, the three doctors couldn't ask for it, and hurriedly left to continue the research that had just been interrupted.
"Let's go, go to the third floor."
"Yes, boss."
The third floor of the underground room, since the relocation of the equipment, has been completely closed according to Chen Yang's instructions, waiting for him to come in person before opening.
In fact, when you actually stepped into the third floor, which was the smallest in area, there was nothing strange at a glance, and there was not much worth noting, just some real equipment similar to the upper two floors.
"By the way, boss, Mr. Frost sent a message earlier, asking how you want to name the real yàn room?"
Following Chen Yang into the third floor, Liu Helan, who was quietly accompanied, asked softly.
"Name?"
Chen Yang put his hands on his shoulders, casually looked at the scene on the third floor with his eyes, and said, "This kind of small thing...... Well, it's okay, I think the shape of the yàn room originally looked like an inverted pyramid, so let's just call it 'pyramid'. (To be continued......)
