Yang Rui went to Tengchong to find thermophilic bacteria and isolate heat-resistant DNA polymerase. Hot spring bathing was only incidental, so he made a lot of preparations. Several instruments and equipment he needed were bought from Hong Kong and directly transported to Kunming.

80 In the s, all major equipment and instrument companies in Hong Kong had permanent residences, many of which came from the mainland. The recent rise of Yang Rui's Huarui laboratory also attracted attention, so that when Yang Rui and his party arrived at Kunming airport, the intermediary company in Hong Kong also sent people to pick up the plane and help with the extraction of all the instruments, And sent to the hotel after check-in, leaving business card to leave.

It was Kang Hong, a young associate professor of Yunnan University.

This is also a by-product of Yang Rui's participation in the International Conference on medicine and biology.

Biology is also an advantageous major in Yunnan University. After all, it has rich biological resources. You can find a few plants or microorganisms and publish a good paper. Under the snowball effect, it's relatively easy to get out of the army.

However, no matter how strong a local university is, it is no better than a university in Beijing. First of all, there are fewer places for various international conferences, and it costs more to attend a conference.

This year, Kang Hong did it for the director of the research office. Although the last sentence sounds funny, it's not really funny.

1984 In, the Americans were considering immigrating to Mars ambitiously. If the Soviet Union could stick to it for another 20 years, maybe the United States could really stick to it and make further exploration in outer space.

Although domestic researchers lag behind the times, their goals are 20 years, 30 years and even 50 years later, especially those who do basic research, with a long-term vision.

Microbial research in extreme environments is also a hot topic. From the 1960s and 1970s to the 21st century, it has always been prosperous, and its research achievements are indeed one of the foundations for human migration to other planets.

60 S is the beginning of the Apollo program. In more than ten years, human beings have completed the moon landing program. At this time, people have reason to believe that space exploration will continue and be faster and faster.

Biosphere, which once earned more than 2000 yuan of pocket money for Yang Rui, was only published in science pictorial under such a background.

When Kang Hong named him, Yang Rui was quite surprised and asked, "have you seen my popular science articles?"

"After the media reports, I borrowed it from the library." Kang Hong is very glad that after returning to school, he specially collected reports about Yang Rui.

Yang Rui nodded and said, "Professor Kang is also interested in microorganisms in extreme environments?"

Kang Hongxin said, if you are interested, I am interested.

In order to answer Yang Rui's question, Kang Hong continued his serious attitude and said: "I think the high-temperature hot spring is close to the early environment of the earth, especially the microbial ecosystem inside is relatively simple, stable and closed, which is very convenient for us to do research and primitive accumulation."

The original accumulation means that we can't make profits immediately. Yang Rui's intention is not to drink. He just said, "I just got 600000 yuan of research funding recently. I want to do more research. If Professor Kang can help us find the hot spring, I would be very grateful."

60 Kang Hong's goal is not only to find hot springs, but also to be a tour guide. He immediately invited him to say, "the biological laboratory of Yunnan University is also very good, so it's better for us to cooperate."

"There is no need for cooperation in such a small project. Moreover, we have enough staff." Yang Rui refused meandering.

Wei zhenxue is already impatient, chasing a sentence: "you want to engage in competition, we do not oppose."

"I dare not." Kang Hong quickly expressed his attitude: "if you have anything to help, just let me know. If you can help, it's better. Today, I'll take you to eat authentic Xuanwei ham. I've done research on the microbial function and flora of Xuanwei ham before, and I have a good relationship with several state-owned factories. By the way, you know that the protein content of Xuanwei ham is lower than that of fresh meat, but the soluble amino acid content of Xuanwei ham is 2. Eight times? "

Kang Hong changed the topic, and Yang Rui said with a smile, "is it because during the process from processing to maturity of ham, some proteins are hydrolyzed into amino acids by enzymes?"

"Yes, my research shows that the content of aspartic acid, serine, glycine and arginine in Xuanwei ham is significantly higher than that in fresh meat, which is one of the reasons for the increased ham flavor. In addition, Xuanwei ham contains 45 milligrams of vitamin A per 100 grams of lean meat, and its aftertaste comes from alanine, serine, threonine, tryptophan and their derivatives... "Kang Hong introduces delicious food, and does not forget to prove his identity as a researcher, trying to impress Yang Rui deeply.
