Chapter 597 Horse Meat Dinner (3)

Let's work together again.

The Shen Guanglin Laboratory of Jingcheng University and the Institute of Liver Diseases of the Affiliated Hospital of Jingcheng Medical University joined hands.

Another temporary project team was established - that is the hepatitis B vaccine research and development project team.

Naturally, the person in charge of the project team was not Shen Guanglin, but his second general Heng Ha, that little horse, little cow, the little cow among little dogs.

Xiao Ma became the de facto person in charge of leukemia research, and Maverick, who made his debut with him, was a little out of date and unbalanced.

This is the same as Li Dan and Jianguo.The two obviously debuted together, one became popular and rich, the other became fat and decadent.

Xiao Niu became the person in charge of the hepatitis B vaccine research team, leading three or five kittens to start the research and development of the project.

This is a bit too much. Whoever applies for a patent first and then develops a product later, they are.

What's even more extreme is that they applied for the patent first, so they didn't mention it, and they used the name of Shen Guanglin's elder brother-in-law, Lu Jun.

My eldest brother-in-law in Tongjiang didn't even know that he himself had become the inventor of the hepatitis B vaccine.

If it wasn't for someone who found him later and wanted to buy his patent, he wouldn't even know there was such a thing.

Now, Shen Guanglin's laboratory is cooperating with the Institute of Liver Diseases of the Affiliated Hospital of Medical University to develop a real hepatitis B vaccine.

Both sides also have some accumulation and have a basis for cooperation.

The Institute of Liver Diseases of the Medical University has been researching hepatitis B vaccine for a long time, and they are very familiar with the characteristics of the virus.

The group of people in the biology group of Shen Guanglin's laboratory has a precedent of successful genetic modification, and the methods are extremely skilled.

The cooperation between the two parties will naturally get twice the result with half the effort.

However, in order to make the research and development process smoother, Shen Guanglin still gave guidance.

First use PCR to sequence the DNA of hepatitis B virus, and then transfer this fragment to yeast. After the yeast expresses the corresponding gene, check it again with PCR.

With a good theoretical foundation and good operating tools, success is as simple as that.

It took only half a month for the hepatitis B vaccine to be developed.

When they decided to develop the hepatitis B vaccine, it was already late autumn, and when the vaccine came out, it was not yet the beginning of winter.

Is it that simple?
In fact, it is not simple at all.

In real history, it was not until 1993, when Shencheng Taikang Biological Company was established, that the country had its first official hepatitis B vaccine production line, and it was the technology imported from Citigroup Merck Pharmaceuticals.

In October 1993, Huaxia finally produced the first batch of recombinant genetically engineered hepatitis B vaccine and began to inoculate it nationwide.

"I heard that the hepatitis B vaccine joint team has produced a product?"

"Impossible, we haven't done it for more than ten years, and they did it in more than ten days? They were still collecting detailed information on the virus last week."

"But I heard from Sister Liu who works there that they are ready to test animals."

"real or fake?"

"It should be true. Sister Liu is my good sister. Will she lie to me?"

"She even lied to her husband, why can't she lie to you?"

"That's different."

Early this morning, several researchers from the Institute of Liver Diseases of the Affiliated Hospital of Beijing Medical University sat in their office and discussed the enemy's situation.

Since the establishment of the joint project team, it has become an "enemy".

In fact, their feelings are very complicated. They want the other party to develop a highly effective hepatitis B vaccine as soon as possible to save the people from the fire, but they don't want them to succeed so early.

Otherwise, it would seem that my group of people is too good.

However, they never expected that the vaccine would be developed in just half a month.

I heard that today the monkeys will be given "tricks". If they pass the test, what will happen to them?
As soon as Director Tao arrived at the office, she was immediately surrounded.

"Director Tao, has the Hepatitis B vaccine of the joint team been produced?"

"I'm not sure yet. They said they were going to experiment with monkeys, and let's see the effect."

To be honest, Director Tao's mood is also very complicated.

It has been less than a month since she approached Shen Guanglin to discuss the development of the hepatitis B vaccine, and she has made such a breakthrough and progress.

Originally, she thought she was upright, but the joint project team was progressing so fast, and she was not as happy as she imagined.

Could it be that this is the gap?
However, the biology group in Shen Guanglin's laboratory is different. Even Dou Wei feels that he can be "arrogant" again.

Didn’t you form the United Nations to study leukemia vigorously? Look at us, we only used a few people to complete the research and development of hepatitis B vaccine so low-key and quickly. Isn’t it amazing?
Of course, this matter was actually directly led by Shen Guanglin, and it was directly carried out by Dou Wei's subordinate Maverick Niu, completely skipping Dou Wei, but he didn't think there was anything wrong.

The credit must belong to everyone, Maverick, who was once his assistant and student.

The technology of transferring the gene of hepatitis B virus to yeast is not a pioneering technology. Moreover, the progress of experimental instruments is changing with each passing day. This PCR is very easy to use, so it is really not difficult to realize this function.

In particular, these people in the biology group of Shen Guanglin's laboratory are now playing tricks on genetically modified.

In the experimental field, the corn is so sweet that you don’t need to add sugar to pop the popcorn; the beans are one meter high and can be used for hanging when dried; the eggplant is thick and long, especially useful at night.

If Shen Guanglin hadn't stopped them, these things would have been exiled long ago.

The hepatitis B vaccine was successfully developed, which immediately opened their minds. What other virus vaccines can be prepared through genetic modification?
There are many, can start a business.

A major source of income for Great Wall Biotech is the sale of animals, especially animals used in biological experiments. Now, they can make vaccines.

So far, many universities and research institutions in China have directly asked them to buy experimental animals, so Great Wall Biology has already made money.

It's not that everyone doesn't want to buy imported ones, it's because the Great Wall Biological Company's products are of high quality and low price.

Think about it too, people only earn twice the price, of course the quality is cheap.

Importing from abroad, the shipping fee, training fee, and other expenses are skyrocketing.

Today is a big day, 30 monkeys will be vaccinated against hepatitis B and tested.

This is a Chinese macaque, a very common monkey in China, with a peaceful appearance and a small size.

It is also this kind of monkey that the monkey people play with.

Some people are asking: After the injection of these 30 monkeys, if there is nothing wrong with it, can they eat monkey brains?

Shen Guanglin felt cold.

He can accept eating dog meat, golden cicadas, and silkworm chrysalis, but he can't stand eating monkey brains, or eating monkey brains raw.

How is this different from cannibalism.

The release of the hepatitis B vaccine can be regarded as a phased achievement, and everyone should celebrate it.

In fact, they knew it was a success without conducting biological tests, because they had already tested it with PCR equipment, and the expressed genes were no different from those of blood culture.

I heard that their instrument is very useful, and the Institute of Liver Diseases also wants a PCR instrument.

Yes, $[-] each.

Too expensive to afford.

If we had this thing, we would have made more results.

The celebration is about to begin.

In the biological base, the way everyone celebrates is to hold a barbecue meeting.

The person in charge of the project is Mavericks, who is the biggest today.

He has a proposal: can you eat horse meat.

why?
There is no reason, I just want to eat horse meat, who asked Xiao Ma to lead the leukemia project team.

However, there are a few horses in the biological base, but they are all top-quality Akhal Tekin horses, which were given by Shen Guanglin's good friend, the little prince of the Middle East. Or, can we eat mules?
The Mavericks agreed.

Eat donkeys and mules, not horse mules.

Mules are also different, because a donkey mule is born from a male horse and a female donkey, and the lab colt is a stallion.

The Mavericks are the biggest today, he has the final say.

No one is allowed to eat beef today, and neither is buffalo meat.

Potato stewed beef brisket was replaced with potato braised pork.
