Chapter 617

The rules of the meeting, as it was set, played a strong exemplary role after Macmillan sat down.

The scholars sitting in the meeting hall raised their hands again after a short period of aphasia, but the next questioners could not help but put away their arrogance.

The reason is very simple. Yang Rui has proved that PCR is effective.

Although it's not the Nobel Prize winner in Yang Rui's goal - normal people don't expect to see Nobel Prize winner's works speak in front of them for the first time in their lifetime - it's a rare achievement in this conference to solve an important problem.

80 AIDS in the early S has not yet shown its super lethality and terror, but the cure of any disease is actually a world-class problem, just like everyone will get a cold, modern medicine can not cure it, the role of a variety of cold drugs is only to alleviate and accelerate self-healing.

In fact, there are not many diseases that can be cured by modern medicine, and fewer diseases are subject to professional research. At present, the attention paid to AIDS is not weak in the scope of medicine.

Yang Rui's PCR technology can promote the research of AIDS, indicating that it may also promote the research of similar drugs, even biological research.

"International Conference on Genetics" is a world-class biological conference, but it is not a top-level conference. For this three-day conference, there are less than three scientific discoveries that can reach the current level of PCR.

If we treat such technology and such scientists with a contemptuous attitude, I'm afraid that Yang Ming's goal has not been achieved and will be despised in the first place.

All the people present, whether white, black or yellow, sat down obediently and treated young Yang Rui as scholars.

When people were scrambling to raise their hands, all the imaginative arguments disappeared.

It's not that the argument is incorrect, but that the atmosphere has changed.

"Hello, Mr. Yang Rui, I'm Blanco from Ohio State University. My team is studying the RNA sequence homology of PVY viruses. With the further study of RNA functional structure of PVY viruses, we have found that PVY viruses have the same RNA sequence, We found that the homology mainly exists in the coat protein gene and RNA replicase gene functional region of potato virus Y group... If I want to extract such RNA sequence, can I also use your PCR technology? " The second person who stood up no longer cared about Yang Rui's prediction.

Yes, there is no responsibility and burden for attacking the speaker's prediction, and it doesn't matter if it's wrong. If it's well said, it will become famous, just like a free lottery ticket.

However, no matter how good the lottery is, there is no real money that can work.

Yang Rui explained the importance, or part of the importance, of his PCR technology to the participants with just one question and answer.

But even this part is important enough to fascinate the audience.

What they see is the research progress that they are likely to make rapid progress.

So is Blanco. He is just like a chemist who has just learned the function of X-ray!

And the value of PCR is reflected here.

As a simple method of gene replication, PCR is no surprise, but it is extremely powerful to promote the whole scientific community, which is the same as the discovery of Nobel Prize X-ray.

Simple technology won the Nobel Prize, not because of its simplicity, but because of its impetus to the scientific community.

It is useless for Yang Rui to say so many fascinating platitudes in his speech. Scholars are used to ignoring the exaggeration in various reports and speeches. They don't think it's wrong. On the contrary, they can show most of the truth in the question and answer session.

Yang Rui's answer to Blanco was equally concise and made the audience agitated.

Yang Rui thought a little and answered Blanco: "no problem. As long as you design the right primers, you need to extract the genes of a variety of viruses and design them according to their conserved sequences. It's a professional job, but it's not too difficult. I have prepared some brochures on how to extract, design and produce PCR primers, and I will send them to interested friends later. "

If you are the designer of the original PCR, you can't answer Blanco's question now.

Because PCR was not invented to do these things, and Cisco didn't know it could do these things.

Back then, they even had to develop a special reagent box in order to apply PCR technology.

But for Yang Rui, what PCR can do is too clear. It may take several months or even more than half a year to design the primers. He can know the principle by searching casually.Blanco couldn't believe it. He said: "our group has been trapped here for several months. We're not afraid of jokes. We've tried many methods and consulted a lot of literature. It costs a lot of money, but the results are not much..."

"We Chinese like to say that we can't do porcelain without diamond. I designed PCR technology, In order to solve the problem of biology. This will be a general technology, not only to solve the problem of HIV replication or potato virus replication, but also has a wide range of functions. Because the time for the speech is limited, I have no more explanation. If you are interested, you can get a pamphlet to read when you leave. "

The reason why Yang Rui didn't explain more about PCR function is actually determined by his purpose. The purpose of his speech is to prove that PCR technology was invented by himself. As for how much PCR technology can do, the technology will be put there, and we will try and study it slowly.

It's like he invented the vibrator. As for the manufacturer, whether it's for digging concrete or boudoir, it's all the work after the patent application.

Blanco did not believe the explanation, but asked questions.

He has been involved in plant pathology for many years, and has made efforts in the field of potato virus for more than ten years. Almost without thinking, he put forward three or four questions at a time, so that the host had to give some advice.

Yang Rui answered very slowly, and only answered PCR related questions. Even so, Blanco was still silent.

"Professor Blanco, do you have any questions?" The host reminded him.

Blanco shook his head slowly and said, "I'll go back and have a try before I know if there's a problem."

There was a light laugh around him. Blanco didn't think he was pestle. Just as he sat down, he quickly stood up and said, "Mr. Yang Rui, can you show me the pamphlet you just mentioned now?"

"Of course, just a moment, please." Yang Rui took out a white pamphlet from his backpack under the desk.

He was about to pass it to Professor Blanco when someone below called out, "can I have one?"

"Me too."

"The same."

Everyone yelled, including the media. Media reporters are curious, and the first time they send news, the minds of scholars are much more complex, some want to understand, some are curious, and more people still have the idea of taking the lead.

One of the advantages of attending academic conferences is that they can obtain industry consultation in advance. In scientific research, the first priority is to consult the literature to see if anyone has solved the problem or similar problems. Even if not, it is good to get ideas from the literature. Only when this road is blocked will we consider developing new methods. But just like our own research, who knows how many difficulties we will encounter in developing new methods? Some projects that are not well funded or urgent often stop here, and then wait for new technologies to appear in the world.

Some people have been waiting for ten or eight years, doing new projects in their hands, keeping the original projects in their heads, and then looking for the opportunity to continue the previous projects.

But no matter the previous project or the current project, there are few projects in the biological system that have nothing to do with PCR.

Since the 1960s, the world's biotechnology has begun to spread to the gene world. There are only a few organisms that have not yet entered the gene system. The emergence of PCR can be described as changing with the time,

With the increasing number of scholars asking for pamphlets, the rest of them are also affected and ready to move.

"Mr. Yang Rui, if not, send the pamphlet now." The host asked Yang Rui.

Yang Rui nodded, picked up the backpack under the platform, put it on his hand, took out a stack of pamphlets, and prepared to send them from front to back. He asked, "if you need a pamphlet, please raise your hand."

Shua!

A hundred and ten arms were raised, like a small forest with branches, neat as if it were the price hearing of China.

The cameraman of the New York Herald did not hesitate to press the shutter, but his heart was pounding.

This time, he felt in a trance that he might have photographed something extraordinary.
