Chapter 255 Bacteria under the Microscope [Moon Ticket, Subscription Request]

Not only in the city of Mountain Sea, but also in the Americas, Europe, Africa, Oceania, many countries and regions around the world are experiencing outbreaks of this new corps disease.

This is a global disaster.

At this rate of transmission, if it is not effectively contained, the global community can collapse within a month.

Even with all their hearts and minds, Governments can only stand together for the time being, with national scientists and medical personnel racing with time.

Huaxia had the earliest PCR results, Legionella pulmonalis.

It was also reported at the earliest that erythromycin was not effective.

New leads have just been announced to the Multinational Secret Service, which is artificially manufactured and artificially transmitted: newborn congregations, old people with dead faces, and possibly the Lalaire Order…

NASA personnel are on the front line. The State has also dispatched a number of vessels from the sea to the sea near Mountain Sea City, with a full fleet of scientific research equipment and research teams, transporting samples and patients from Mountain Sea City by helicopter, to carry out various experiments on board.

In the event of an outbreak in the fleet, the entire population would still not be evacuated.

From the moment they set out, they had only two outcomes: success, or death.

A batch of samples and patients have been transported out of Jiangxing Town, and no one has given up fighting on the first front line of Jiangxing Town Hospital, an epidemic area.

There was noise and noise outside, a mess in the little lab, new PCR amplifiers and other devices on the experimental table, coughing.

He Feng is no longer isolated, as are deputy Li Wen and other detectors, but they are still wearing Grade 3 protective clothing, not only to ease their anxiety, but also to reduce bacterial concentrations in the air. Although it's all contaminated, they're all infected, and disease control ethics can't be lost.

Once it's gone, they're afraid something will collapse and they won't be able to pick it up again.

Bacterial cultures made from new blood sputum samples from the kingdom, the dishes are placed in the small thermostatic incubator in the corner.

When they opened earlier, He Feng had a surprise on their faces, as did Uncle Egg who followed them.

Not because of the smell, they didn't smell it.

It was in that glass dish, and it had formed a colony of colonies, circular, gray, white, moist and shiny, slightly raised.

That's exactly what Legionella pulmonalis is all about.

“How long has this been cultivated?” Uncle Egg asked.

“Around 34 hours.” He Feng coughed, “no medium was changed in the middle. ”

Looking at the medium that was almost depleted in the dish, Uncle Egg was silent, and this breeding rate, fast, too fast.

There are four periods of microbial growth, retardation, logarithmic, stabilization, and recession.

Stabilization periods are also referred to as maximum growth periods or constant periods. In the words of the medical book: due to the consumption of nutrients in the culture medium, the accumulation of harmful metabolites, microbial reproduction slowly decreased during this period, the number of deaths slowly increased, growth divisions and the number of dead bacterial cells were dynamically balanced.

Cultivating bacteria to this highest point requires a process.

But in the current situation, the bacteria in the dish seem to have reached a recession stage - the medium is not nutrient-sufficient and the bacteria die more than they live. This rate is several times faster than normal intracellular parasites, common Legionnaires haemophilus, and it is simply growing at a rate that is visible to the naked eye.

And they die too slowly, and the recessionary colonies shouldn't be this texture, unless there's a lot of living bacteria in there.

What do they consume? Are there really “harmful metabolites" for them?

He Feng's cold war symptoms became more severe, and it would have taken more than a dozen days of breeding to complete.

That's why the patient's condition is growing so fast. Now, every second of every minute, in the lung tissue macrophages of these infected people, this new Legionnaires is breeding wildly, eroding more lung areas, and damaging systems throughout the body.

Based on the new rate of disease development in the Kingdom, in more than a dozen hours, he will be powerless and gradually insane.

For her daughter, He Feng hopes to struggle for a while longer.

Perhaps it was this time that the job was switched.

In about this mood, the bacteria were quickly separated, some of the colonies were placed in another incubator, sealed and handed over to a contingent of personnel for transport to the fleet.

There's more equipment and drugs, more antibiotic-sensitive tests for bacteria, all sorts of tests, looking for vulnerabilities in this bacteria.

Then they did another busy job, taking the dishes and looking at the bacteria under a high-quality microscope that was also moving in.

“This damn thing...” Uncle Egg muttered, "Look what it looks like. ”

Uncle Egg clung to the microscope glasses, because wearing this airtight protective clothing, this is really not an easy thing, I finally saw some. Uncle Egg's head was tight, his spirit seemed to be affected shaking, a little panicky.

Ordinary Legionnaires are microscopically presented as a long circle, like a capsule.

But if you zoom in on it, you can see that its surface is actually cramped, cramped together by a bunch of things that look like brains and bowels.

That looks like a worm.

And now this new Legionnaire, it's still long and round, and it seems to have some obvious spots on the surface.

But magnify it, magnify it again...

The spots on its surface are a stretch of something like a limb, twisting and swinging.

It's like pulling all kinds of limbs out of a limb warehouse in hell and putting them up and magnifying them, and you can see... every limb of it has a hole in the palm of its hand, like a mouth, and there's other tissue in it that's creeping...

Is this artificially made? Uncle Egg is even heavier. He's crazy.

“Cough.” He Feng then observed that this is the weirdest germ he has seen in many years working in disease control.

At this point, the door to the small laboratory was pushed open, and a group of young men in airtight protective clothing walked in with guns.

The man who headed it was creepy. He Feng was holding them for a while. Was it caused by severe burns? It doesn't really look like...

“Joon!” Uncle Egg suddenly screamed, as if this had found the main bone, the fighting spirit was a little higher, "you see this thing. ”

He Feng wants to come here, Gu Jun, Dr. Gu! Doctor Gu is a hero in that secret department.

“Dr. Gu!” He Feng couldn't help but exhale, tears almost came out, save us, save my daughter...

From the moment he walked into the lab, Gu Jun had a sensation of fantasy surge. He nodded to everyone and said hello. He walked to the microscope.
