Chapter 303 Breathing Underwater
"Don't worry, all of you are the assets of the company, and it's impossible for the company to just waste it for nothing." Liu Gan nodded.
"Thank you very much, but what is more important than us now is our experimental project, especially the samples needed for the experimental project are the top priority. Without enough samples, the project cannot continue, and if it is delayed any longer, some The research is invalid and we have to start from scratch again. The most important thing after you go back is to ensure that we have enough experimental samples." Wei Liang continued talking to Liu Qian.
"Does the experimental sample refer to those uninfected normal humans?" Liu Gan asked Wei Liang.
"Yes, under the current circumstances, we still need at least 50 experimental samples to guarantee the follow-up research for half a month, and we may need more later." Wei Liangliang nodded.
"Okay, you don't have to stay with us here, let your experimenters sort out the projects on hand as soon as possible and bring them over. I need to listen to your reports carefully before we can arrange the next step." Liu Gan He waved to Wei Liang.
"Okay, I'll let them prepare quickly." Wei Liang responded and walked out of the conference room. He greeted the experimenters to briefly summarize the progress of their experimental projects, and then came to the conference room one after another.
Ten minutes later, all the experimenters gathered in the conference room. There were only 18 people, which was a few more people than when Liu Gan and others were greeted at the cabin door, but it was different from the number Liu Gan imagined. Still a lot less.
Among the eighteen experimenters, there were thirteen male experimenters and five female experimenters.
The young woman next to Wei Liang had never appeared before. After she appeared in the conference room, the pupils of Han Guangming and Zhao Meng both dilated a little, and their eyes subconsciously lingered on her pretty face for a long time. After a while, he quickly moved away again.
"She is my assistant, her name is Su Nina, and she is a talented researcher." After seeing the eyes of Han Guangming and Zhao Meng, Wei Liang took the initiative to introduce them to the four of them.
"Hello, distinguished guests." Su Nina greeted the four of Liu Gan, her voice was as sweet as hers. Han Guangming and Zhao Meng were so fascinated that their faces turned red, but Liu Gan didn't raise his eyelids much.
After briefly introducing the participants. The meeting started soon, and the reports of these experimenters were quite professional, and Liu Qian couldn't understand them at all. Fortunately, Yinhe can understand part of it, and then compares it with some data in her memory, and converts it into relatively easy-to-understand content, which is transmitted to Liu Qian's headset through a very slight voice, so that Liu Qian can talk about it. The replies during these reports also seemed relatively professional.
The shape of the galaxy now is that of an armored warrior. She wore a full-face helmet, and when she spoke in a low voice, except Liu Gan could hear her. In the eyes of others, she had been sitting upright without moving, just like a stone.
Seeing that Liu Gan was so professional, Wei Liang and his experimenters also had very serious expressions on their faces, and they took turns introducing the projects in their hands to the four of them.
Through the reports of these people and Yinhe's translation, Liu Gan gradually figured out what the research project of this secret laboratory was. I have to say that their research is still very complicated, all related to marine life.
Extracting some anti-cancer drugs from the brains and bodies of marine organisms is too pediatric. Their research is mainly the combination of the characteristics of marine organisms and human beings. For example, allowing humans to breathe freely in seawater, allowing humans to withstand water pressure thousands of meters deep, allowing humans to discharge electricity like electric eels, and allowing humans to genetically hybridize with fish. Produce real mermaids or something.
Most of the research topics made Liu Gan feel a little disappointed, even drowsy. Only two research projects interested him.
One is how people can survive underwater and breathe like fish. For this reason, they did a lot of experiments, hunted many deep-sea creatures, studied their genes, and extracted a lot of very strange substances. Then they injected some drugs into the bodies of these deep-sea creatures to make their brains produce a special substance, and then injected this substance into the human brain.
Under the catalysis of these substances, the degenerated gills of human beings have been remodeled time and time again. The initial research was to allow people to use the degenerated gills again. But the final research results were rejected by the headquarters, and they had to turn to another research. That is to develop the potential of the human body, so that humans can automatically electrolyze oxygen in seawater for human use, and some progress has been made.
The principle is related to the research of electric eels, so that the skin tissue of the human body can generate electric energy. After the water is absorbed from the skin, it is ionized and decomposed into oxygen and hydrogen. The oxygen is absorbed by the dissimilated skin and enters the human circulatory system for human metabolism. The ionized excess oxygen and hydrogen are excreted directly from the body surface.
Seeing that Liu Qian was very interested in this research, Wei Liang's assistant Su Nina focused on the progress of this project. At present, the submarine laboratory has successfully developed several tubes of finished medicine. After injection, the skin of some experimental subjects can be mutated to obtain the ability of underwater skin breathing, but the success rate is very low, only about one-twentieth.
Although increasing the injection dose can increase the success rate, after increasing the dose, the death rate of the test subject will also be greatly increased. In the case of injecting two injections at once, even if the test subject does not die, it will cause almost 100% insanity.
In order to increase the success rate, they need more experimental samples to further deepen their research, until they can produce a drug with a success rate of at least 50%, which is considered to meet the company's requirements.
"That is to say, after injecting your medicine, two fish gills will not grow on the neck, but the skin will be transformed so that the skin has an additional function of ionizing water? The appearance of the skin Will there be any changes?" Liu Gan confirmed to Su Nina.
If this is the case, he is willing to try it. Once he succeeds, even if he falls into the water in the future, he will not worry about being drowned. The current willow stem alloy hands and feet are so heavy that it is very difficult to swim after falling into the water. They will sink directly to the bottom of the water like a weight, and if they cannot breathe underwater, falling into the water will become a burden for him. Big shortcoming. (to be continued ~^~)
