Text Chapter 1179 Partially Successful Research

"Scientific experiments are really not as simple as imagined!" Zhou Jiexi couldn't help feeling a little bit tired after inputting the data into his supercomputer.

In fact, it has been several hours since this meeting, and the little guy over there has already woken up. It's just not screaming anymore. The environment here made it frightened, but it didn't dare to call out anymore.

In a transparent column in the laboratory, there is a similar one like it. At this time, it is covered with moss-like plants, but it has become skinny.

In another transparent cultivation column, there is a pile of pale red moss. Each one is small, about the size of a fingernail. But under the light red moss, there are many transparent roots, very thin, almost several times thinner than human body hair.

However, there are so many of them that it becomes possible to see their roots.

Below the place where the roots are connected, there is a lot of light yellow oil-like liquid.

There are many such cultivation columns in this laboratory, and each cultivation column has a different shape and time period. In some culture columns, there is a piece of fresh fat. Those red mosses cling to it, planting their roots in the fat.

Zhou Jiexi recorded the data after comparison, and then nodded in satisfaction: "The automatic defense of the immune system is considered to be over. After the roots pass through the immune system and enter the fat layer of the living body, they can directly absorb the fat and grow. And began to increase in complexity, even in a real environment, there is a good survival rate."

Zhou Jiexi looked at the parasitic plant in his hands with gloves on, full of pride. This is definitely the most constructive parasitic plant he has created, and he has the opportunity to cultivate this thing only with the help of space and goblins.

This is what he once told Fatty Wu, the weight-loss plant. It was also specially developed for this purpose. Originally, he only knew that there are parasitic plants on animals. They and animals help each other. With the heart of trying, he asked the fairies to conduct experiments in the space. .

These moss-like plants are actually not moss at all. They are green algae, which live in freshwater ditches and ponds containing organic matter. There are many in early spring and late autumn, and they often form large communities, turning the water green.

In addition, for fish farmers, the green thing that often explodes in the bathtub is also green algae. Chlorophyta, there are more than 6,700 species. The plant body is single-celled, oval, with a thick-bottomed cup-shaped chloroplast in the cell and a starch nucleus at the bottom.

Speaking of professional knowledge, Zhou Jiexi is also expected. The School of Biology is not for nothing, plus he does have some talent in this area, and there is still room for cheating. Biology is actually not that difficult.

This green algae has nuclei located in cups above the chloroplasts. There are 2 equal-length flagella at the front of the algal body, 2 telescopic bubbles at the base, and 1 red eye point next to it. Thylakoids, mitochondria, and Golgi bodies can also be seen under an electron microscope.

But that was before, and what I see now is similar to Ulva plants. The algae are multicellular, sheet-like fronds composed of two layers of cells. The cells at the base extend out the rhizoids, which grow between the two layers of cells, grow downwards and protrude out of the plant body, and intertwine closely with each other to form a pseudoparenchyma-like fixator.

In this way, it can be fixed on the skin, otherwise it will be easy to loosen, and it will not be able to achieve the effect Zhou Jiexi wants. But it can't be too tight, if it is too tight to get it off, future consumers will not be satisfied.

The algae cells are polygonal in surface view and oblong or square in section view, arranged irregularly but tightly, and the intercellular space is rich in colloid. The cells are mononuclear, located on the inner side of the lamellar body cells. Chromosome sheet-like, located on the outside of sheet body cells, with a protein nucleus.

Chlamydomonas can usually reproduce asexually. During reproduction, the algal body is often static, and the flagella shrinks or falls off, and becomes isogamous.

Now this kind, Jessie Zhou named it Chlamydomonas, most of the sexual reproduction of Chlamydomonas consists of 8 to 64 small cells, called gametes. Gametes are morphologically similar to zoospores, but smaller in size.

But the gamete is more convenient. After it is released from the mother cell, it combines in pairs to become a 2N zygote with 4 flagella. The zygote can also quickly become round and form a thick-walled zygote.

The zygote form is almost the listing form Zhou Jiexi wants to achieve, and it will germinate when the environment is suitable. Germinates through meiosis, producing 4 spores. When the zygote wall is broken, the spores swim out to form a new Chlamydomonas individual. Then, it starts to spread over the area you want according to the shape of the clothes, where it grows, falls off, grows and falls off.

Now these on the little pig are already Chlamydomonas, and when it turns red, it will fall off automatically, which means that it has absorbed enough oil from the living beings, and has reached the limit of life, which is very short, but The effect is leveraged.

What Zhou Jiexi can see is that compared with other parts of the body, the part of the piglet obviously has less fat and oil. This is because the guide agent has not been applied to other places, so Chlamydomonas will not have no place for the guide agent. It grows, which is also equivalent to a gene lock. In order to prevent Chlamydomonas from growing randomly, Zhou Jiexi also cuts off the places that people don't want to lose.

Compared with going to the hospital for liposuction, Zhou Jiexi, a symbiotic parasitic plant, is safer and healthier. Of course, this is what he thinks so, yes, it is indeed healthier, and the effect is also very good.

He would definitely not try it himself. The key to this experiment is actually the built-in immune system of vertebrates and humans.

Because vertebrate cells have an adaptive immune system that destroys biological material that they consider not their own, stable symbiosis in vertebrate cells is considered impossible by most scientists.

How could this happen? Either the cells shut down their internal immune system, or the algae bypassed the immune system. Zhou Jiexi's direction is to bypass the immune system and shut down part of the immune system, which is obviously not in line with the peace of mind of a buyer. Commercially, this will not be successful at all.

This is after going through the experiments of the goblins and a group of tortured animals in the space. Finally, this newly cultivated green algae, which uses fat as nutrition, was planted on vertebrates.

It is a pity that in the early stage, there is no good way to bypass the immune system of vertebrates. This has resulted in many animals, because the immune system collided with Chlamydomonas, resulting in various diseases, resulting in fever and other sequelae, and eventually died.

Any experiment requires some sacrifices, and Zhou Jiexi certainly knows this. And a research does not mean that you want to do it, but how fast it can be done for you.

Zhou Jiexi is now standing on the shoulders of giants, or in other words, on the shoulders of space. The research time of the goblins in the space is definitely ten times longer than the real time of his life.

And he can now see Chlamydomonas parasitic on animals, which is already an unimaginable success. Almost more than ten years ahead of biologists in this area, it includes the directional variation of green algae, why it can use fat as a nutrient.

This is the first item. What follows is why it can parasitize animals, how to bypass the immune system, and so on. These are all leading in the general direction, and there are many changes in the direction of guidance. This is definitely a huge project.

However, Zhou Jiexi has solved the previous huge projects. Afterwards, he only needs to observe the differences between reality and growing in space, and what are the differences and disadvantages. This aspect has been resolved. He will be able to start the real human experiment.

But this time, what he was satisfied with was the condition of the little pig, which was very good and healthy. The few piglets born and raised outside have no problems. The most important thing is that the body function has been slightly improved due to the effect of Chlamydomonas. How can I say that the zygote form of Chlamydomonas was developed in space.

Zhou Jiexi picked up the mature Chlamydomonas that had fallen off from the piglets on the platform. The current Chlamydomonas is what he called usable energy, and the current Chlamydomonas is full of oil. As long as it is unrefined, it can burn immediately as long as it is placed by the fire.

He hasn't carefully calculated how much excess fat the human body has, but women who want to lose weight, in both developing and developed countries, definitely occupy the majority of women in this category.

Looking back at using it, maybe it will be a very good circular energy source in the future.

"Now that we have reached this level, it seems that we have to build a relevant team and start to study the human body. Only when it works on the human body can we call it a real success. Otherwise, it would be impossible to achieve success only on the organisms in the spine. Not what he wanted most.

The biolab in San Francisco now has several projects in operation. There are also many projects waiting for him to review and approve. Zhou Jiexi has already tried his best to choose those projects that have the opportunity to make money. He just hopes that these doctors, based on the research on his farm, can prevent him from losing too much.

Now it looks like it's time to assemble your own biological team.

Zhou Jiexi picked up a document he had always prepared, which recorded the team members he wanted. It was also selected in his biology laboratory. In addition, there are biologists outside, some are unsatisfactory guys, and some are blacklisted biologists.

The information of these people is not easy to get. He also entrusted his friends in the fbi to get some. The other is to do targeted consulting projects through information consulting companies, and let them make some selections around the world.

And Zhou Jiexi selected the team members he needed from among these people. To assemble his biological experiment team, this is the most important.
