Chapter 166 Principles of Cabernet Alloys
Jin didn't care about the gossip between Nick Fury and Jenny, he cared more about the carbon fiber.

The information on the carbon dioxide alloy is jointly kept and researched by four scientists. This is what Jin Bin and S.H.I.E.L.D. discussed in advance——

Any research results on carbon dioxide alloys are shared by Kim and S.H.I.E.L.D.

Jin also entered the laboratory and saw that Fitz was trying to crack the hard drive brought back from the Hydra base, while the other three scientists were studying the paper version of the information.

Layton and Taylor, who belonged to Jin Bin's forces, stopped their work when they saw Jin Bin coming in, and said, "Hi, boss."

Jin Bing said: "How is it? Have you found a way to treat the side effects of Cabernet alloy?"

Leighton and Taylor both showed embarrassment, Fitz was not a subordinate of Jin Bin, so he said without restraint, "We don't even know how the carbon alloy is made now."

Simmons smiled bitterly: "We don't even know the internal structure of the carbon steel alloy."

Jin was not surprised. He is not a muscular and simple-minded person. He also has a certain understanding of scientific knowledge, and his well-developed muscles can also promote his faster learning and thinking——

"How is it possible? Didn't you already get a sample of the Cabernet alloy in the ruins of Jersey? Couldn't it be observed with an electron microscope?"

Simmons and Fitz had previously received an order from Nick Fury to tell Jin Bin about the carbon dioxide alloy without any concealment. Simmons called up a screen on the central holographic projection screen and said:

"look here."

Jin and the three of them watched Simmons' actions together, and even Fitz came over.

"Fitz and I each have specializations. He is good at machinery and inorganic materials, and I am good at biochemistry. Of course, our disciplines also intersect.

It would be an exaggeration to say that our research on carbonaceous alloys has not yielded any results, but these studies are only scratching the surface. "

As he spoke, he tapped his finger lightly, and the properties of the Cabernet alloy appeared on the central holographic projector——

Slightly soluble in water, highly toxic, inhibits cell division, inhibits biological regeneration, and has sterilization effect.

The molecular structure of Cabernet in the middle is a group of neatly arranged atoms.

Kim asked, "What is this?"

Simmons said: "As you can see, we haven't figured out what the carbon steel looks like until now.

Generally speaking, the structure of a metal is that the atomic nucleus acts as a framework, and the shared electron cloud diffused between them acts as an adhesive to complete the construction of the metal structure.

However, no matter whether Fitz observed it under an electron microscope or measured it with inorganic chemical bonds, he concluded that its structure was that of ordinary metallic iron.

Of course, there are titanium alloys and aluminum alloys.

Cabernet metal is microscopically indistinguishable from ordinary metals, yet it has strange properties that we cannot explain. "

Jin Bing frowned. According to Simmons, Cabernet alloys are all kinds of common metals, but would it be like a poisoned dagger, with special poison impregnated in it?

No, no, Jin quickly denied this speculation. The size of the poison molecule is much larger than that of the metal atom. It is impossible that Simmons did not discover it...

Taylor, who hadn't spoken all this time, speculated: "Could it be that some kind of toxin is mixed in the metal? The molecular size of this toxin is much smaller than the metal atom, or even smaller than the metal electron?"

Layton shook his head and denied: "It's unlikely, the size of the body that destroys human cells is limited, it can't be too big or too small.

No matter how hard an elephant exerts itself, it cannot destroy human cells and make them unable to divide; similarly, if the particle size is too small, it cannot affect the cells of a 'monster'. "

Simmons approved of the discussion between the two of them. This was also her guess and discussion with Fitz. Thinking of this, Simmons slipped his hands, and another picture appeared on the central holographic projector——

"Look, here's something weirder."

This is a video showing microscopic phenomena, a small cluster of metal atoms on the left and a biological cell on the right.

Simmons introduced: "This is the invasion process of the carbon dioxide alloy. After all, I clicked the play button, and the images in the video began to move."

The atomic clusters of the Cabernet alloy were absorbed by the huge cells, entered the cell membrane, and then penetrated into the cell nucleus.

Simmons zoomed in on the image, and everyone saw what happened in the nucleus——

Driven by some inexplicable force, the metal atoms climbed up the DNA double helix in the nucleus and stuck tightly around it.

Jin didn't understand—"The movement of these atoms seems to be regular..."

You should know that under normal circumstances, as long as the temperature of the object is not as low as absolute zero, the molecules in it will move randomly, but the movement of these metal atoms does not seem so "regular", they seem to be controlled by Something commanded, four or five in a circle, like a few people holding hands and embracing a big tree.

"What are they doing?" Taylor's eyes lit up. If this video wasn't made with special effects, it would definitely break her view of science, and even her view of the world.

"Keep watching to find out." Simmons said, "Five seconds later, we injected the cell culture medium with hormones that promote mitosis."

After all, the cells in the video began to change, and the two DNA strands twisted together began to separate one by one, but at intervals, a cluster of carbon atoms locked the two DNA strands, making them unable to separate .

In order for a cell to divide, it needs the DNA double helix structure to unravel, and then re-pair with the four bases, just like a man and a woman who were originally married, now they have to separate, and then they are looking for the other half again.

And the atomic groups of the carbonara alloy are like naughty children, holding the two chains tightly together and not letting them separate.

Simmons joked: "Look, what a warm scene, but if it is reflected in the macro, I am afraid it will not be so warm and interesting——

Cells cannot divide and regenerate, and wounds cannot heal. Even if there is no trauma, the cells of the body will naturally age, especially the lung cells will be completely renewed every [-] days. Many mice died because of their respiratory function on exhaustion. "

After listening to Simmons' description, Taylor and Layton, and even Kim were shocked, but Simmons did not forget to add:
"By the way, the atomic number of the metal demonstrated in the video just now is 26, which is the most common iron."

There was silence in the laboratory, and everyone digested Simmons' words in a daze.
