Folk black technology boss - Chapter 330

c329 single mother cell

(Yesterday I was depressed for a day due to relationship issues, so I didn’t update)

The security level is the highest level, and a variety of biological viruses and bacteria are stored in a biological laboratory.

A biological researcher who was dressed awkwardly and had several layers of protection inside and out carefully took out a lump of slime mold from an incubator and put it into a petri dish.

After Zhang Hongli closed the incubator again and confirmed that the security system did not alarm within ten seconds, Zhang Hongli walked clumsily through the five security doors with the petri dish containing the slime mold.

After handing the clean petri dish to the intelligent robot, Zhang Hongli slowly breathed a sigh of relief.

It’s so tiring, every time I enter the lab it’s a torture.

After watching the intelligent robot put the petri dish into the body and leave, Zhang Hongli took off layers of protective clothing with the help of the intelligent robotic arm.

A few minutes later, on the other side, Li Zhou, who had obtained the petri dish containing slime mold, placed the petri dish with slime mold on the laboratory work platform.

Under the observation of an electron microscope, the enlarged image of the slime mold on the petri dish was projected onto a transparent holographic projection by Weixi.

Looking at the broccoli-like slime mold colonies on the holographic projection, Li Zhou unconsciously touched his chin.

Although I have heard about slime mold before, although slime mold is a single-celled organism, it is very magical.

As a single-celled organism, slime mold cannot think, but it has instincts that humans do not have.

Because of the instinct of slime mold, slime mold has become the subject of research in many fields. Even astronomers have begun to use digital versions of slime mold to explore the cosmic web.

Slime mold has a very complex structure with special material chain filaments, which can also be found in galaxies.

Overall, slime mold is very close to the cosmic web predicted by humans. This structure is very difficult to observe because humans are too small.

In addition, as early as the time of Blue Star, slime mold was also recognized by human scientists as the strongest space planner.

It is precisely because of the special characteristics of slime mold that when we left Blue Star, we deliberately took the slime mold with us on the spacecraft.

However, after so many years of evolution, it is not known whether the previous impact on the space environment has changed much from the first-generation slime mold that was taken away on the Blue Star.

Li Zhou looked at the slime mold deified by scientists and marveled.

Speaking of which, this was the first time he had seen the true face of slime mold. He had never thought that he would one day deal with slime mold, nor did he expect that slime mold would become the key to the secondary brain of a black technology creature.

Slime mold can also become a biological assistant brain that can assist humans in learning, researching, and storing various materials.

(Should be able to store many movies…)

Li Zhou can’t wait to see the moment when the biological accessory brain takes shape.

“Weixi! Inject 0.09% saline into the petri dish to disperse and dilute the slime mold colonies.”

“Weixi understands.”

After saying that, Weixi personally went into battle and injected 0.09% saline solution into the petri dish containing the slime mold.

After the little hands that were as steady as a rock and did not shake at all injected 100ml of physiological saline into the petri dish, all the slime mold in the petri dish floated on the surface of the physiological saline.

Visible to the naked eye, a thin yellowish film floats on the surface of the physiological saline, and the light yellow film represents individual slime molds.

On the other side of the laboratory work platform, Weixi was preparing special potions according to the records on the biological accessory brain.

Add various raw materials according to the proportion, stir evenly and extract.

Then take out only about 10 ml of dark green liquid in the bottom third of the test tube from the extraction solution.

Li Zhou held his breath, fearing that he would disturb Wei Xi and cause the experiment to fail.

Weixi carefully dripped the green liquid slowly and evenly drop by drop into the petri dish that had diluted the slime mold with physiological saline.

The green liquid dropped into the petri dish and spread quickly like black ink dropped into clear water. Soon, the entire liquid in the petri dish turned into a light green.

At this point, the basis for the transformation of the slime mold into a biological paracephalic monoblast has been established. The next step is to induce the slime mold in the petri dish to mutate into the biological paracephalic monoblast as recorded in the data.

The process of mutagenesis requires a big guy.

That is a large radiation device that can emit ξ and λ rays.

Fortunately, these are all minor problems. It is no exaggeration to say that Li Zhou’s private laboratory is equipped with almost all experimental equipment that may be used. It’s not just him, Li Zhou. As long as they are top scientists, their laboratories are just like Li Zhou, with all kinds of experimental equipment very complete.

Nothing else, just because it is not too simple to manufacture these experimental equipment now, and the cost is also very low.

After seeing Weixi put the petri dish into a radiation instrument that could emit ξ and λ rays, Li Zhou pressed the ξ ray emission switch.

The moment Li Zhou pressed the switch, a light blue light source with a diameter of 100 mm shone on the petri dish containing the slime mold, and this light blue ray light with a diameter of 100 mm had just illuminated the entire petri dish. .

Next, there is a long wait.

According to the description in the data, if nothing unexpected happens, under two hours of ξ-ray irradiation, 10% of the slime molds will be targeted and mutated into single mother cells of the biological parabrain.

Among them, what Li Zhou couldn’t understand the most was how the targeted mutagenesis in the data was achieved. Is it just based on the so-called lb-zk06 culture medium?

I’m afraid not necessarily.

Slime molds generally have complex internal structures like neural networks.

Hundreds of years ago, humans have mastered the methods and methods of mutating genes. However, all methods and methods of mutating genes are to conduct undirected mutagenesis of genes. As for the gene expression results after mutagenesis, are they good or not? Bad, completely undeterminable.

Moreover, in most cases, the mutagenesis that occurs is harmful to humans.

For example, the terminal disease that once made all human beings frightened and talked about in disgrace – cancer!

Cancer occurs precisely because some cells in the human body mutate and become bad cells that can replicate themselves indefinitely.

In the laboratory, Li Zhou raised his hand from time to time to look at the time on his smart bracelet. Sure enough, the more anxious he was to know the results of the experiment, the slower time passed.

No more than one second, no more than two seconds, and when the two hours were up, the light blue light emitted by the instrument was cut off instantly.

Under Li Zhou’s anxious gaze, Weixi took the petri dish out of the equipment, and then placed it again under the electron microscope on the laboratory work platform for observation.

The spring breeze also brings sorrow, and the spring breeze will relieve my worries without any effort.
