Great Power Technology

It took three full days for the zero-stage experimental team to finally locate the allergen. As Lin Qingshu expected, the problem was indeed the injection needle.

But strangely, the chain of allergy caused by needles is extremely rare. The final metal analysis results showed that all these mice were allergic to trace copper elements.

In other words, these needles contain copper.

This is not an abnormality worth making a fuss about, because the stainless steel used in the syringe already contains a small amount of copper, but the problem is that during the brief seconds of contact, these copper elements are basically unlikely to cause allergies.

Therefore, the only possibility is that the syringes contained free copper.

After further analysis, the experimental team came to an unexpected conclusion:

The needles contained trace amounts of copper powder, which may have been contaminated during the production process. The cleaning process of the experimental group could not completely remove the copper ions adsorbed on the surface, which ultimately led to allergies in some mice.

"...Isn't this nonsense? After checking again and again, you finally found this result?"

Xuancheng listened helplessly to Lin Qingshu's report. He really didn't expect that the allergens would come from such a place.

"It is indeed an extremely rare event - actually it is not a big problem. If these needles were used clinically, they might not be discovered at all."

"But since the manufacturer has such a problem, I suggest that we suspend the purchase and let them conduct self-examination first. Then use the backup manufacturer's products for subsequent experiments."

After confirming that it was not a problem with the experimental procedures and technical documentation, Lin Qingshu's tense spirit relaxed.

After eliminating this deviation, the entire zero-stage experiment can be declared a success.

After a brief exchange of words, Xuancheng signed the investigation report, which was submitted to the General Technical Office together with the experimental results.

For the Phase Zero team, their work is done.

However, they did not expect that this report would cause a huge disturbance in the near future.

…

Two weeks later, in Suzhou and Hangzhou, inside the BCI Research Institute building of Zhejiang University.

After several months of treatment, Yaoyao's condition has basically stabilized. In order to promote recovery, she was allowed to leave the hospital and go home - of course, actually back to the BCI Institute.

With Chen Li's application, the two Yang Yiyao brothers have moved from their original shanty town to the dormitory of Zhejiang University, living next door to Chu Ya. This makes it relatively more convenient both in life and work.

Now the BCI transmission project is being rolled out on a large scale. As the first and the best adapted experimenter so far, Yaoyao still needs to participate in a large number of optimization experiments in the project and output based on her personal experience. Optimization suggestions.

Before she fell ill, she could be said to be the absolute core person in the project. Even after she stopped participating in the project, the experimental group fell into brief chaos.

However, such confusion is not necessarily a bad thing.

In part, moving away from reliance on a single experimenter pushed the project toward becoming truly universal.

So when Yaoyao was discharged from the hospital and returned to the research institute to return to her post, she was still lost for a while.

Because his position has been replaced by a new batch of cross-experimental groups.

Most of the time, all she needs to do is some data verification work. After all, in this field, no one in the entire institute can be faster than her.

This day was another boring day. Yaoyao was sitting boredly in Chen Li's office. There seemed to be a neural electrode feedback rate difference report on the table. She had read the data above no less than five times, and she had already read it. came to a conclusion, but she did not give the results to the experimental team.

The reason is simple. Once this report is handed in, it means that one's work for the day is over.

Why not keep looking, in case there is any problem that you haven't discovered yet?

So, she opened the thick report to the beginning again, starting from the first number, comparing the data as standard reference values ​​one by one, trying to find an abnormal fluctuation point.

However, this kind of work was really boring, and she only persisted for a short while before lying down on the table.

Just at this moment, Chen Li opened the door and walked in.

When he saw Yaoyao lying on the desk, he quickly stepped forward and asked:

"What's wrong, Yaoyao? Are you sleepy?"

Yaoyao frowned and raised her head and replied:

"It's not that I'm sleepy, it's that I'm too bored. Brother Chen Li, can you arrange some other work for me? These things are too simple."

"You know, I can do a lot of things for you, but it would be too wasteful to just do this..."

Chen Li breathed a sigh of relief and replied with a smile:

"This is not a matter of waste or not. You are still sick now, so you should focus on rest..."

"But I really have had enough rest."

Yaoyao interrupted Chen Li's nagging aggrievedly. Seeing her expression, Chen Li smiled knowingly.

She was probably really bored.

Think about it, children her age are either in school or playing crazy, what about her?

There is no need to learn those basic contents, and there is less contact with peers.

After getting used to the rhythm of participating in scientific research projects, suddenly there is nothing to do. Can you not be bored?

However, having said that, he does not intend to arrange a new job for Yaoyao. Instead, he will completely remove her from the project team and enter the rest period again.

"You haven't had enough rest yet."

"Starting from tomorrow, you should not come to the institute. There will be a nurse sister who will accompany you to monitor your physical condition. She will tell you when to rest and when to exercise."

"I don't want...hey?"

Yaoyao subconsciously wanted to refuse, but in an instant, she keenly discovered the problem.

Why would you suddenly let yourself go back to rest?

The doctor told me before that it was okay to study and work moderately.

The answer seems obvious.

"Am I going to have surgery?"

Chen Li nodded, he was not surprised by Yaoyao's reaction.

"When?"

"It is estimated that in the next month - about two weeks later, you will have to do some tolerance tests first. This is why you need to go home and rest."

"If this operation is successful, your disease will be completely cured."

"Great!"

Yaoyao suddenly stood up from the chair, not hiding her excitement.

No one wants to live with a disease. Even if it is just a small cold, everyone wants to cure it immediately.

Not to mention lupus, a life-threatening disease that may break out at any time.

She walked around the room excitedly, but suddenly, she turned to Chen Li and asked:

"Does it have to be me?"

Chen Li was stunned for a moment, and soon he understood what Yaoyao meant.

After hesitating for a moment, he shook his head and replied:

"Not necessarily. I'll ask Uncle Ye for you. If he agrees, you can make your own decision."

"But maybe you don't have to--there are many opportunities, and this is not the only one."

Yaoyao nodded and said:

"I know."

"However, I can wait for future opportunities, but some people can't wait."
