Chapter 117: Penicillin 2.0

Uncle Wang?

"Please."

"Uh...... He's a little ......."

"Let him in first."

Could it be that what has happened to the development of penicillin?

Fa Zheng has not shown any signs of discomfort so far, so it can be seen that he must have died of a sudden illness.

And a large part of the acute illness of the dead in this era is related to bacterial infection.

If there is a means to confront it, even if it is not mature, there will always be more hope and protection.

Liu Chan, who was eager to know the result, did not listen to the guard's words.

So a moment later, an unkempt man with a stench and a strange smell walked in.

Luckily, it's winter, and if it's summer, I'm sure we'll already have a room full of flies......

"Uncle He? What's wrong with you? ”

Why is this look worse than the last time he was tied up by Chai Rong, and he was tied up by a thief again?

Can't, which way of thieves dares to come to Chengdu to kidnap people?

Wang Xi was stunned when he heard this, stretched out his arms and looked at himself up and down, then bowed down and said with a wry smile: "I thought hard day and night, tried many times, I didn't want to be so rude, and I asked the prince to forgive me." ”

This benevolent brother tossed these few times, and the smell emanated even more.

However, Liu Chan can also understand this, isn't most of the people who are engaged in research like this, at least he didn't drink ink...... Probably not, right?

"What's the catch?"

Wang Xi arched his hand and said: "There is indeed some progress, but there are also confusions, and we don't know the reason. Therefore, the law was obtained from the prince, so he came to inquire. ”

Then Wang Xi reported the current research progress to Liu Chan.

According to Liu Chan, since Penicillium is also a living organism like plants, trees, flowers and birds, it naturally needs to eat.

It grows on top of food, and that's how it is. Although the recipe given by Liu Chan is mustard greens, since it is Penicillium that works, then the food must be the same.

According to the method given by Liu Chan, it took ten years to get a batch of "Penicillium Essence", and after discussion, they finally came to a conclusion.

In the past ten years, Penicillium has been able to fully obtain the nutrients in the mustard greens and grow in large quantities, or perhaps to allow other useless or even harmful substances to be removed, leaving only the essence of Penicillium.

In this case, it is only necessary to intervene artificially in these two things, and the time to get the drug can be accelerated?

Wang Xi and the doctors and craftsmen who came to him immediately brainstormed and took action.

So Wang Xi and other doctors screened and collected the green mold on the food, and discarded the other colors.

It was then gathered and placed in an urn, after which various things were tried to provide nutrients to Penicillium, such as broth, chicken blood, and even human blood......

After a lot of trial and error, they found that rice juice and taro boiled sauce worked best.

After comparison, this was done much faster than buried penicillium mustard.

Everyone was very excited, and they were enthusiastic about research, and after standing this solution for more than ten days, they used bud thatch to filter out the obvious impurities in it, and they obtained penicillin version 1.0.

They immediately fed it to dogs, rabbits and other animals whose wounds were festering and pus, waiting for a miracle to happen.

And then...... The vast majority of the animals died.

Vomiting, diarrhea, convulsions and death, death in a variety of forms.

Even those animals that were lucky enough not to die did not get better at a faster rate of time than their festering wounds.

The corners of Liu Chan's mouth twitched when he heard this, fortunately there was no animal protection organization in this era......

The failure of the penicillin 1.0 test poured cold water on everyone's heads, but the way of medicine was already a bit against the sky, and there were times when it was more difficult to practice medicine with his teacher, and Wang Xi did not give up because of this.

After several days of discussion, everyone determined that there should be no problem with the steps so far.

There are only two possibilities, either the prescription given by the prince is wrong, and the so-called penicillium essence is useless at all.

Either that...... Perhaps other steps are needed, and they haven't been able to extract the true Penicillium essence yet.

The first one may have been denied by Wang Xi.

When the prince talked to him about medicine before, his explanation of "external evil" was refreshing to him, and it was proven to be reasonable.

In his heart, the prince is also a medical geek, it is impossible to deceive him with a fake prescription, and the cost of research comes from the prince, how can he spend money to recruit people to do some useless work.

However, in this way, the research and development of penicillin has reached a bottleneck, and the prince is right, and their previous method should be right...... So what's wrong?

For quite some time, research stalled, and everyone was at a loss.

Until one day, in order to relieve the dull atmosphere, a healer told an interesting story.

A wealthy businessman kept a piece of beeswax in oil, hoping that the beeswax would maintain its luster, but after a while, the beeswax melted away......

"But he did not know that water is soluble, and oil is also soluble." The healer laughed.

Wang Xi's eyes lit up, and he grabbed the healer: "What did you just say?" ”

"Uh...... Beeswax melted into oil. ”

"One last word!"

β€œβ€¦β€¦ Water has soluble substances, and so does oil. ”

Wang Xi had a flash of inspiration, and it seemed that another door suddenly opened in his clueless head.

Since the penicillium essence is invisible, according to what the prince said, there are still things in this world that are so small that they cannot be seen.

Perhaps the reason for the failure of the experiment is that in addition to the impurities filtered out by the bud thatch, there may still be other useless things in the filtered water, or even poisons.

So...... Could it be that they are just different from Penicillium extract in the same way that they dissolve in oil or water?

He explained the method he thought of to everyone, and everyone else thought that they could try it, and there was no other way anyway.

Everyone immediately took action, poured the filtered juice into the oil and stirred it thoroughly, and then took out the oil and water after they were back in their respective places.

And they found that in addition to oil and water, there was some insoluble stuff in between, which increased their confidence.

They then fed oil, water, and insoluble matter to various animals......

Animals fed oil and insoluble matter either died of vomiting and diarrhea, or they were ineffective, without exception by trial and error.

Among the animals fed water, although there were still dead and ineffective, they finally tried a few more times...... Two dogs are getting better and better.

This discovery immediately made everyone feel like a treasure, and it was also determined that Penicillium essence must be present in water.

Penicillin version 2.0 was born.

"Great!" Liu Chan was overjoyed, he didn't expect the progress to be so fast.

During the battle of Hanzhong, those numb watched themselves decay little by little, and the last dead soldiers seemed to be still in front of them.

The birth of penicillin can greatly increase the survival rate of wounded soldiers, and if you popularize some basic health care knowledge, you will definitely be able to save many veterans in future wars.

In an army, the role of veterans is irreplaceable.

Even if there are heavy casualties, as long as some of the veterans survive, the generals can use this as a foundation to quickly raise another army that can be fought again.

And if it's all recruits...... How slow it is from recruitment to the formation of combat power, Liu Chan has a personal experience.

When the technology is improved and matured, it will be promoted to civilian use, and the population will ......

And you can also use this thing to blackmail Cao Wei and Dongwu, only sell finished products, and strictly abide by secret recipes.

"Prince, prince?" Wang Xi looked at Liu Chan, who was in a fantasy, and couldn't help but take two steps forward.

Compared with Wang Xi's call, it was the foul smell that came to his nose that dragged Liu Chan back first.

couldn't help but take two steps back, Liu Chan asked, "What?" ”

"This medicine is really magical, and it can occasionally have the effect of reviving the dead, but unfortunately it doesn't work from time to time, and there are too few effective times, but I don't know why?" Wang Xi was puzzled that if this problem could be solved, the result would be subversive.

Liu Chan thought for a moment and said, "You can try to let the livestock drink alkaline water first, and then take this medicine again." ”

There is no way to solve the serious gastrointestinal reactions caused by allergies and crude purification technology.

However, the question of effectiveness should be further improved.

As far as he knows, except for some specially processed penicillin preparations, most of the penicillin will be broken down by gastric acid, and the intestinal absorption and utilization rate is low.

But it doesn't matter, there are always more ways than difficulties, neutralize the destruction of stomach acid, and do two more bowls if the intestinal absorption rate is low......

As for allergic reactions, let's try a small amount first.

Besides, they were already dying, and a low cure rate is better than no way.

It's always good to try your luck.

【Wang Xi's Opinion +10】(80)

[Wang Xi's favorability is 80, Constitution +5, Medical Talent +10Γ—2]

[Medical Talent Upgraded to Talent]

After asking the reason for drinking alkaline water, Wang Xi hurriedly surrendered his hand and said, "Yes, I'll try it here!" ”

"Don't forget to take time to shower!"

Liu Chan waved his hand, but the stench in the house could not be dissipated...... It seems that I had to go to the Great Sima Mansion to sleep first today.

However, a slight smell did not affect his good mood at this time.

The military is the basis for the strength and even survival of the power, but it is not the whole story.

If penicillin can be achieved, it is best if Fa Zheng can also use it, which is not only to save Lao Liu and himself a top strategist.

He also wanted to use this incident to alleviate some Confucian suppression of other disciplines.

Lay the foundation for improving Jihan's comprehensive national strength in an all-round way in the future.

Thanks to the "Shenghuang" boss for 1500 points, and once again inject funds into the Jihan Armed Group, your points will be used for the expansion of the Red Star Army, thank you for your support~
