I Exchange For Black Technology By Blowing Up The Bully

Chapter 707 Blood Cow

"Professor Clark from the Cincinnati Children's Hospital was not paying attention when he was doing an experiment. A white mouse fell into a perfluorinated compound solution. Professor Clark did not notice it at the time. He saw it three hours later, but the white mouse did not drown. Swim around like a fish.”

"Current perfluorocarbons can carry oxygen but do not combine with oxygen. The oxygen-carrying capacity is twenty times higher than that of water and two times higher than that of blood. Some premature infants suffering from respiratory distress syndrome use perfluorocarbons. Carbon supplies oxygen.”

"However, whether it is a hemoglobin oxygen carrier or a perfluorocarbon, its current role is to provide a temporary buffer, first providing oxygen to the patient, so that the patient can live until the body's bone marrow regenerates enough blood cells, or at least until the blood bank is renewed."

Lou Jinghui paused, "There is an old movie, Jackie Chan's "Who Am I", have you seen it?"

The people in white coats were startled, some nodded and others shook their heads.

"There was a plot in that movie where Jackie Chan used coconut water to infuse blood to the wounded. Because coconut water does not have particulate antigens such as bacterial cells and flagella, it will not cause obvious rejection reactions. At the same time, the fructose in coconut water can It is directly used by tissue cells, and its osmotic pressure is greater than that of water, so it will not burst red blood cells."

"It is said that the Japanese and the British used coconut water for intravenous injection during World War II, temporarily saving the lives of seriously injured soldiers in emergency conditions on the battlefield. Some cholera patients in India, Indonesia, and Bangladesh also injected young coconut water."

"So in my opinion, whether it is hemoglobin oxygen carrier or perfluorocarbon, they are essentially large-scale coconut water. To give it a pause, they are far from real artificial blood." Lou Jinghui said. , "The more information I collect, the more pessimistic I become about artificial blood. Boss, are you sure you don't want to stop at the cliff?"

"Shut up." Song He said.

"Okay!" Lou Jinghui turned off the audio.

"Who adds?" Song He looked at the other people in white coats.

"The route I am focusing on is more difficult." Lu Chengen said, "Start from the source of blood and make artificial bone marrow."

All eyes were focused on Lu Chengen. The experience of the old man could still defeat the young man instantly.

"The chance of success in non-blood matching from the bone marrow bank is only one in 200,000. It is too difficult to induce differentiation of stem cells to form suitable artificial bone marrow." Lu Chengen flipped through the information in his hand.

"Many years ago, Wang Jinyong's team and Zhang Mengyun's team made some progress. They first performed cell gene editing and used a large number of mice to try and make transplantable artificial bone marrow seed cells. The key point of the technology is the hematopoietic regulatory genes, Runx1 and Hoxa9 , Hoxa10, homologous recombination to create embryonic stem cell lines..."

"The peripheral blood, bone marrow, and spleen of mice can produce complete mononuclear myeloid, B-cell, and T-cell lineages for a long time, which can be maintained in the animal's body for about five or six months. I also paid attention to tumor problems, because many Stem cell technology will eventually give rise to tumors..."

Lu Chengen talked for a long time and put down the paper in his hand, "My opinion is also that this technology is too difficult. Are we sure we want to stick to it?"

Song He ignored the advice and turned around and said, "Okay, Lou Jinghui introduced the chemistry route, Professor Lu introduced the bone marrow route, is there anything else to add?"

The people in white coats all talked about the information they had collected, and all the weird and evil tricks were thrown out.

In the end, thousands of words were condensed into one sentence, to persuade you to quit!

Everyone is trying to persuade them to quit!

Song He rubbed his temples with a headache. Only he, the general, wanted to fight this tough battle, and all the soldiers below him were retreating.

However, he is also used to it. Technology that is too disruptive will inevitably trigger such resistance. After all, no normal person wants to participate in a gamble with a slim chance of winning.

At this moment, a strong leader is needed to persist to the end despite all opinions, and at the same time find a way to give the soldiers confidence!

"Let me tell you two things!" Song He raised two fingers.

The noisy crowd fell silent and looked at the boss silently.

"The first point is the value of artificial blood." Song He said seriously.

"The value in the field of national defense warfare is that large-scale battles will inevitably lead to lack of blood. Artificial blood is mature and can save the lives of soldiers on the battlefield. Once we have enemies, it will give us a huge sense of security and morale."

"Economic value and humanitarian value, let me give you two examples, the two largest blood markets in the world, Amrica and Tianzhu."

"America's blood market value is 50 billion U.S. dollars, accounting for 2% of its annual national export share. The actual situation can be said to be a poor man's lament."

"The maximum number of blood donations in our country is 26 times per year, and in EU countries it is 45 times, but Amrica has an extraordinary number of 104 times, which means it can sell blood twice a week. Most of this blood is squeezed from the local poor."

"The current price of Amrican blood is an average of 280 dollars per month. Some large plasma companies will issue coupons, and one coupon can be sold for several dollars more. In addition to locals, there are also some from Laos, Mexico and South American countries. Poor people will also smuggle into the country on a large scale to sell blood. They drink water before selling blood so that they can sell more."

"The old Mo people often sell their lives when selling blood. They sell it in one place first, and then change places to sell it, because many of the old Mo workers only earn two or three dollars a day, and selling blood for dozens of dollars a time is too tempting."

"The blood market in Tianzhu is even more impressive. There are a large number of people kidnapped to extract blood." Song He took out a piece of paper and handed it to the team members for circulation.

On the paper were some horrific photos. Those who heard them were shocked and those who saw them were silent.

"For example, I found this news about Gorakhpur on the border of Tianzhu. This place is the only way from Nepal to Tianzhu. There are many refugees. We all know that Tianzhu is poor. In fact, Nepal is even poorer. It is unimaginable. The quality of life that allows a family of seven to brush their teeth with the same toothbrush cannot be smuggled to us across the Himalayas, so they smuggled to Tianzhu to survive."

“The local police in Gorakhpur found a blood cow station and rescued more than 20 blood cows from it, half of them were Nepali refugees and half of them were Indians. The arms of these blood cows were full of needle holes for drawing blood. Many of them had already After being imprisoned for two and a half years, his hemoglobin dropped from the normal 18 grams per 100 milliliters to four grams. Those who were about to die were transported by traffickers to the wild and left to fend for themselves."

"What's the price? One pound of blood is equivalent to 30 yuan in our money. This is the local market. 30 yuan can buy a lot of dry food, enough for refugees to eat for a long time, so human traffickers are very rampant in catching blood cows."

When Song He said this, the people in white coats around him were stunned.

The people in the laboratory are all high-income people. I can't imagine the quality of life of people who live by selling blood.

"This is just a border town in Tianzhu. How many blood selling stations are there in Tianzhu and how many blood cows are secretly imprisoned? I don't know, it may be an astronomical number." Song He said.

"Therefore, if we develop artificial blood, we can create at least tens of billions of profits every year, and at the same time, we can reduce the tragedy of blood cows in the world." Song He said, "In this sense, we must create artificial blood Do it because humans need artificial blood."

The people in white coats looked at each other, and no one said anything to persuade them to quit.

"The second point." Song He said, "As you know, I don't fight uncertain battles. I also have a plan for the route of artificial blood."
