Three Kingdoms: Prosper Han from the beginning of brushing favorability

Chapter 120 Penicillin 2.0
Uncle Wang?
"Please."

"Uh...he has some..."

"Let him in first."

Could it be that the development of penicillin has achieved something?

Fazheng has not shown any signs of discomfort so far, so he must have died of a sudden illness.

In this era, a large part of the sudden illnesses of the dead are related to bacterial infections.

If there is a way to fight against it, even if it is immature, 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.

After a while, a man with unkempt hair and a foul smell came in.

Fortunately, it's winter, if it's summer, it's estimated that a room full of flies will be attracted by now...

"Uncle? What's wrong with you?"

Why is this appearance worse than being tied up by Chai Rong last time, and being tied up by bandits again?
No way, which bandits dare to come to Chengdu to kidnap people?
Wang Xi was taken aback when he heard the words, stretched out his arms and looked at himself, then bowed and smiled wryly: "Think hard day and night, try many times, I don't want to be so rude, please forgive me, Prince."

After this man tossed and tossed it a few times, the smell became even stronger.

But Liu Chan can also understand this. Isn't most people who do research like this? At least he didn't drink ink... Shouldn't he?

"Is there any gain?"

Wang Xi clasped his hands and said, "There are indeed some progresses, but there are also some perplexities, and we don't understand the reason. Therefore, the method is obtained from the crown prince, so I came to ask about it."

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

According to Liu Chan, since the penicillium is a living thing like plants, flowers and birds, it naturally needs to eat.

Most of them grow on food, so it seems.Although the prescription given by Liu Chan uses mustard greens, since Penicillium is the one that works, the food must be the same.

According to the method given by Liu Chan, it would take ten years to obtain a batch of "Penicillium Essence". After discussion, they finally came to a conclusion.

This decade is not only to allow Penicillium to fully obtain the nutrients in mustard greens to grow in large quantities, but also to let other useless or even harmful things go away, leaving only the essence of Penicillium.

That being the case, wouldn't it be possible to speed up the time to get the drug by only intervening in these two matters?
Wang Xi and the medical craftsmen who came here immediately brainstormed and took action.

So Wang Xi and other medical craftsmen screened and collected the blue mold on the food, and discarded the other colors.

Then put it together and put it in the urn, after that I tried various things to provide nutrients for Penicillium, such as broth, chicken blood, and even human blood...

After a lot of trial and error, they found that the combination of rice juice and taro juice works best.

After comparison, this is much faster than buried penicillium mustard.

The crowd was greatly excited, and they were enthusiastic about their research. After standing the solution for more than ten days, they filtered out the obvious impurities with thatch grass, and obtained the penicillin version 1.0.

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

And then... most of the animals died.

Vomiting, diarrhea, convulsions and death, with different forms of death.

Even for those animals that survived by luck, their festering and pus-filled wounds did not improve significantly.

The corners of Liu Chan's mouth twitched when he heard this. Fortunately, there are no animal protection organizations in this era...

The failure of the test of penicillin 1.0 has poured cold water on everyone's head. However, the journey of medicine seems to be going against the sky. In the past, there were times when it was more difficult to learn medicine with a teacher. Wang Xi did not give up because of this.

After several days of discussion, everyone confirmed that the steps so far should be fine.

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

Or... Maybe there are other steps, they haven't been able to extract the real Penicillium essence.

The first possibility was denied by Wang Xi.

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

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

However, in this way, the research and development of penicillin has fallen into a bottleneck. The prince is right, and their previous methods should be right...so what went wrong?

For quite a long time, the research stagnated, and everyone was helpless.

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

A wealthy businessman kept a piece of beeswax in oil, hoping that the beeswax would keep its luster, but when he checked it after a while, the beeswax melted away...

"But he doesn't know that there are soluble substances in water, and there are also oils." The medical craftsman laughed.

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

"Uh...wax melted in oil."

"The last sentence!"

"...Water has something soluble, and oil has it."

Wang Xi had a flash of inspiration, as if another door opened suddenly in his clueless mind.

Since the penicillium essence is invisible to the naked eye, according to what the prince said, there are still things in this world that are too small to be visible to the naked eye.

That may be the reason for the failure of the experiment, that is, in addition to the impurities filtered out by thatch grass, there may still be other invisible useless substances, even poisonous substances, in the filtered water.

So...could they just happen to be different from Penicillium essence in oil or water?

He explained the method he thought of to everyone, and everyone else felt that they could try it. Anyway, there is no other way now.

Everyone acted immediately, poured the filtered juice into the oil and stirred thoroughly, and took out the oil and water after returning to their respective positions.

Moreover, they found that in addition to oil and water, some insoluble substances were produced in the middle, and this discovery increased their confidence.

Then they fed oil, water, and insoluble matter to various animals...

Animals fed oil and insolubles either died of vomiting and diarrhea again, or were ineffective, repeated trials without exception.

Among the animals that were fed with water, although there were still dead and ineffective ones, finally after a few more attempts... the condition of two dogs improved significantly.

This discovery immediately made everyone feel like a treasure, and it was confirmed that the penicillium essence must exist in the water.

Penicillin 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 soldiers who numbly watched themselves rotten little by little, seemed to be still in front of them.

The birth of penicillin can greatly increase the survival rate of wounded soldiers. If you popularize some basic health care knowledge, you will surely 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 a part of the veterans survive, the general can use this as a foundation to quickly pull up another battle-ready army.

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

When the technology is improved and matured before being extended to civilian use, the population...

And you can use this thing to blackmail Cao Wei and Soochow, only sell finished products, and strictly keep the secret recipe.

"Prince, prince?" Wang Xi looked at Liu Chan who had fallen into fantasy, and couldn't help taking two steps forward.

Compared with Wang Xi's call, it was the foul smell that drew Liu Chan back first.

Unable to bear back two steps, Liu Chan asked, "What?"

"This medicine is indeed miraculous. It can bring the dead back to life occasionally, but it is a pity that it is not effective at all times, and it is effective too rarely, but I don't know why?" Wang Xi was puzzled. If this problem can be solved, the result will be subversive of.

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

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

However, the issue of effectiveness should be further improved.

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

But it doesn't matter, there are always more solutions than difficulties. If the stomach acid is damaged, just neutralize it, and if the intestinal absorption rate is low, just make two more bowls...

As for allergic reactions that can kill people, just try a small amount first.

Besides, they were already dying, so a low cure rate is better than nothing.

It's always good to take a chance.

[Wang Xi Favorability +10] (80)

[Wang Xi favorability degree 80, physique +5, medical talent +10×2]

[Medical talent has been upgraded to excellent talent]

After asking the reason for drinking alkaline water, Wang Xi hastily cupped his hands and said, "Yes, I'll try it next time!"

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

Liu Chan waved his hand, but the stench in the room couldn't go away... It seems that I have to go to the Da Sima Mansion to sleep first.

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

The army is the foundation of strength or even survival, but it is not the whole.

If penicillin can be used, it would be best if Fazheng could also use it. It would not only save Lao Liu and himself a top strategist.

He also wants to use this incident to ease some Confucianism's suppression of other disciplines.

To lay the foundation for improving Ji Han's comprehensive national strength in an all-round way in the future.
