Chapter 383: Artificial Uterine Technique

The core area of the Space Ranch Breeding Center is home to a large number of instruments and robots, and unlike other areas, there are also people, real people.

The core area is made up of many, many small independent laboratories, as well as some mature breeding lines.

After listening to the brief introduction of the narrator, Su Zhe and the five walked in those independent laboratory areas. In these independent labs, there are more robots, and only a few are real people.

According to the narrator, after a while, the space ranch will undergo a full upgrade, which will focus on these robots and real people.

These robots will become more advanced when upgraded, and they will be able to do more things, not to mention all the work of a human being, but it will be about the same.

Then there are the real people, after the upgrade, the space ranch will no longer be resident in real people when it is not necessary, and all real people will be replaced by remote control of humanoid imitation robots.

For these, Su Zhe and the five people knew a little bit, after all, these upgrades had a direct connection with them.

It's not just the space ranch that needs to be upgraded, but also the space farm, the space fishery, and the One biosphere that need to be upgraded.

Not only that, but almost all long-serving celestial devices will be upgraded, or iterated.

It comes down to the fact that technology is moving too fast. For example, this time, the brain-machine has been formed, and the humanoid simulant robot has also been iterated, and the past ones will be eliminated one by one.

When the proton nuclear fusion device and cold nuclear fusion become, it will be another big technological iteration. Under the guidance of the narrator, Su Zhe and the five of them entered a small laboratory.

There are only three robots in this laboratory, and these three robots are busy, unresponsive to the arrival of Su Zhe and the five people, still doing what they have to do.

Su Zhe and the five of them took a turn in this small laboratory, and under the explanation of the narrator, they knew what this laboratory was for.

The function of this laboratory is very simple, which is gene sequencing. The same is gene sequencing, which is much more advanced than the previous technology.

To put it simply, as long as the sequencing target is put into the device, the sequencing process can be completed in just a dozen seconds.

It's the same as taking X-rays in the past. As for the principle, it is unusually simple, and the wavelengths of the electromagnetic waves absorbed and emitted by different substances differ.

This is not a simple sequencing, and even the space mechanism of genetic material can be detected.

Fan Xiaoming stood at the entrance of the laboratory, his hand swiped the space in front of him, and a new picture appeared in front of the five people, which was a 3D spatial map of the whole gene sequence of the spermatogonial cells of the cow that had just been measured.

With Fan Xiaoming's thoughts, the picture is constantly changing. What does the genome correspond to, what are the functions, the process of genome expression, and so on.

Seeing this, Zuo Dajun sighed and said: "It's now, there is such technology in the past, and it is easy to detect these, that is, this kind of technology, and our medical technology has achieved a qualitative leap." "Speaking of which, it is actually thanks to Su Zhe and Ning Changsheng.

It is these two who have improved the detection technology by several orders of magnitude, not only at the micro level but also at the macro level.

The detection techniques are used in a wide range of applications, from SS-defense systems to atomic detection.

At present, the detection accuracy has reached the atomic level. If you want to say that there are shortcomings of this technology, that is, the penetration is poor, no way, this is the disadvantage of electromagnetic waves, or the photons themselves.

Fan Xiaoming said with a smile on his face: "Of course, in the current surgery, as long as you wear specific equipment, you can see people transparently, and you can see changes in the human body from the small to atomic level, and there is no obstacle at all. "This kind of device has been promoted for a long time and has been iterated many times.

By now, most of those surgeons have been laid off, and most of them have simply been replaced by medical robots.

Nowadays, the treatment of patients is quite simple. The first thing to do is to detect the atomic level of the whole body, so as to establish a digital file, which is actually a digital person.

The next step is to analyze the digital person, and the diseases that have appeared can basically be detected instantly, and it is easy to deal with after being identified, and it can be treated according to the specific situation.

If there is an uncertain cause, good guys, it will be a lottery, and thousands of specialists in Hula will consult.

Again, as long as it's not the kind of person who dies on the spot, he won't die, and even if he can't be completely cured, there's no problem with saving his life.

Xu Zhengping nodded with a smile and said: "The current medical methods have developed to the extent that they were unimaginable in the past, to put it simply, the life expectancy of people now depends on the life span of the brain, how long the brain can run healthily, how long people can live." ”

"Yes! This is the current situation, but science and technology are constantly evolving, and when we fully analyze the mechanism of the brain, it is not without problems to achieve the immortality of the brain. Fan Xiaoming smiled,

"We can use the method of partial replacement of brain tissue to achieve brain immortality, and the same is true for the human body, of course, this is a stupid method, I prefer to see that human immortality is achieved at the genetic level." Fan Xiaoming was quite confident when he said it.

The analysis of the brain and the analysis of the genetic material of the human being has been going on all the time. Theoretically, after the genetic material of the person is completely analyzed, it is a sure thing that the person will achieve immortality.

Zuo Dajun looked at the changing genetics of the cow in the picture in front of him, and said with a smile: "Why, we have made a big breakthrough in the analysis of human genes, or we have completed the analysis of human genes." Fan Xiaoming waved his hand and said: "It's still far away, but it is certain that there is no problem in completing the analysis of human genes in our lifetime, but I don't know if we can achieve immortality as I thought." Bao Qi thought for a moment and said, "It's only a matter of time, and it's feasible to achieve immortality." A few people chatted and talked about this small laboratory, and after walking around the laboratory area, a few people came to a relatively large laboratory.

There are five robots and one real person in this lab. This person was quite enthusiastic when he saw Su Zhe and the five people coming in.

Speaking of which, this person is still a student at Lingzhou University of Technology. The student warmly received Su Zhe and the five people, and introduced the functions of the laboratory to several people.

This laboratory is for the cultivation of bovine spermatogonia and is a specific, experimental culture. After introducing these, Xu Zhengping, as the principal, also cared about the life of this student here.

The student answered truthfully, saying that they were students in turns, and that they would only stay here for a month, and then they could choose to go back to Earth.

He also said that there is no difference between being here and being on Earth.

"There is not much difference between here and on the earth, the food, drink, and housing are almost the same, the laboratory work is also easy, most of the time it is a brain-based work, the main work is actually to come up with ideas, do innovative work, as for those repetitive jobs, they are completely replaced by these robots. If it's not good, it's that our residence is in the No. 1 ecosystem, and we have to waste a few minutes flying back and forth every day to and from work, and I thought it was quite fresh at first, but now I don't feel it, and I feel like a waste of time, I think it's okay to get us a place to live in the space ranch. There's no need for it now, and I've heard that there is no need for us to stay here in the future, and it's replaced by a remotely controlled robot, so I can lie down at home. By the way, there is also a brain computer, when will we be able to use the brain computer, I watched the whole process of the brain-computer press conference, this brain computer is too powerful, and there are upgraded humanoid robots. With a brain computer, there is no need for a tablet like the one in my hand, and any game cabin can be eliminated. ......" Su Zhe and the five of them listened to this student and chatted for a while, and then several of them left the laboratory.

I walked around the laboratory area again, and I knew that the laboratories here are basically for artificial uterine technology services, or artificial uterine technology supporting laboratories.

The laboratory area is also partitioned, and the experimental objects in each partition are different, including cattle, sheep, horses and other livestock, as well as some animals in the grassland ecology, such as squirrels and marmots.

After leaving the laboratory area, Su Zhe and the five of them came to the breeding production line area. The first thing they visited was the cattle breeding line.

The first thing you see is a large cell culture area, to be precise, the culture area of bovine ooblasts and spermatogonia.

It is mainly the proliferation and development of these ooblasts and spermatogonia to form egg cells and spermatozoa. These formed egg cells and sperm will move on to the next area and the fertilization area after passing the examination.

Zuo Dajun looked at the thousands of identical devices in front of him that could not be seen at a glance, and said with some surprise: "This is ...... How many different ooblasts and spermatogonia there are here, it's a bit scary! "The volume of these ooblast and spermatogonia culture devices is not large, just the size of a large teapot, and it is still transparent, and you can still see some of it inside.

The other people couldn't answer this question, but the narrator gave an accurate answer. There are millions of oogoblasts and spermatogonia in this area.

Hearing this, several people were surprised. It's just the same breed of cattle, and if you count the other breeds, it's even more.

Hearing this, Zuo Dajun asked another question, and asked the commentator directly: "How are these ovoblasts and spermatogonia obtained, it is impossible to obtain them by surgical means." As soon as Zuo Dajun finished speaking, Su Zhe and Fan Xiaoming laughed.

Fan Xiaoming said with a smile: "Dajun, it's not a year ago, there are many ways to obtain oogoblasts and spermatogonia, and they are also surgically obtained, which is too backward, don't say that you don't know nanorobots, we have realized the big and popular nanorobots that have been hyped in the past a few months ago, I will let you see how nanorobots obtain oosperm cells and spermatogonia." As he spoke, Fan Xiaoming's hand waved in front of him, and what appeared in the picture was a nanorobot that had been magnified many times.

These nanobots are put into the feed of the cattle and enter the bodies of the cattle with the feed, which then enters the bodily fluids of the cattle and finally into the blood vessels of the cattle.

Over time, these nanobots came to the designated area, some nanobots surrounded the target cells, some nanobots began to work together to carry them, and finally these nanobots and the target cells were excreted along with the cow urine.

After quickly watching the whole process, Zuo Dajun was unusually surprised,

"It's only been a year, we have such a cow, this method of collecting oogoblasts and spermatogonial cells, it can be said that there is no harm to the cow at all, this way, can only be said to be too good, I never thought it would be this way." Fan Xiaoming smiled and said, "The army! You should know that half a year ago, we collected all the world's technology and related research materials, coupled with the liberation of the domestic labor force, all the foundations have joined the scientific research work, and there is nothing strange about the rapid development of technology. "After the asteroid impact event, China has obtained all the valuable research data in the world, coupled with the increase in scientific researchers, the rapid development of technology.

Zuo Dajun smiled embarrassedly and said: "I was still thinking about how to obtain eggs and sperm in the population increase plan, it was a bit troublesome as in the past, after all, there are many of them!" When I saw this, I realized that it was not egg cells and sperm at all, but ooblasts and spermatogonia, and I was thinking about how to obtain ooblasts and spermatogonia, but I didn't expect it to be so simple. "Compared with the acquisition of sperm, the acquisition of egg cells is much more troublesome, and it has to be surgical.

Of course, this was in the past, and now it's much easier to get eggs. At first, he thought that this artificial uterus technology was like IVF in the past, which was directly taking egg cells and sperm, but now he seems to be conservative.

Comparatively speaking, it is more straightforward and straightforward to take oogoblasts and spermatogonia. A single acquisition can last for a long time.

The most important thing is that after the egg cell and sperm are taken, their genetic material is basically determined, but after the oocyte and spermatogonia are taken, it is different.

In addition, oogoblasts and spermatogonia can be increased by proliferation, and the genetic material of egg cells and sperm produced by them is also diverse.

Overall, it is much better to take ooblasts and spermatogonia than to take egg cells and spermatozoa. Fan Xiaoming smiled and said: "That's because you think too much, it is much more direct to take oogonia and spermatogonia, and there is all that trouble." Zuo Dajun nodded with a smile, and said with some surprise: "If you look at it this way, is it possible for us to increase the population without limit only if we have enough resources and energy?" Fan Xiaoming nodded and said, "Theoretically, it's like this. ”
