My biological black technology

Chapter 38 True Biochip

In the blink of an eye, another six or seven hours passed. When she saw with her own eyes that Cheng Xiang quickly mutated the target protein from scratch, and then accurately located and extracted the target gene, Chen Wenli was not surprised and Zhang Dingkai was really convinced.

Next, with this technical foundation, more than 20 days later, all the target genes were extracted.

Then came a week of intense synthetic bonding work.

Laboratory-level samples of efficient and accurate spectrum-sensitive biodetectors have been successfully trial-produced.

In the laboratory, everyone gathered around a tiny black packaged box that was one centimeter long and one millimeter wide, with a round hole-like hole right above it, their faces full of joy.

Although this thing is very inconspicuous and ugly, it is actually the essence of technology condensed. However, this small box is a bit strange, with varying numbers of metal pins extending around the box.

This thing is rare in biological laboratories.

"Wen Li, do you think this thing smells a bit like a chip?" Zhang Dingkai asked. After so many days of hard work and studying the techniques given by Cheng Xiang, everyone in the laboratory is basically familiar with each other. The network is up.

"Chip?" Chen Wenli heard what Zhang Dingkai said, and when she looked at the dark box in front of her, she suddenly felt strange, "It does look a bit like it."

Although they are not engaged in computer chips, they live in the information age and their researchers still know what a chip looks like.

Hearing the two people muttering like this, everyone's expressions became more and more weird, "This thing can't really be a chip, right?"

"Real biochip?" Jiang Chengze asked tentatively. He was also unsure, but the thing in front of him looked too similar.

Biochips exist in the biological field itself.

But this chip puts a biological sample on a piece of glass, silicon wafer, nylon membrane and other materials, and then uses an instrument to collect the signal, and uses a computer to analyze the data results.

It is easy to connect biochips and electronic chips just by looking at the literal meaning. Although biochips and electronic chips are indeed inextricably linked, they are two completely different things. Biochip is not the same as electronic chip, but just borrows the concept. Its original name is "nucleic acid microarray" because the biological reactions on it occur in intersecting columns and are famous for high-throughput, miniaturization, and automation.

It is completely different from the traditional electronic chip.

But the one in front of me feels similar to an electronic chip. This is what surprised everyone.

"Don't you think it's strange? Now think about it, I seem to have seen Professor Peng from the School of Information Technology several times in the past half month?"

"I think I've seen it too. Once I saw Director Cheng and Professor Peng entering the laboratory together."

"..."

The more the information was summarized, the more everyone felt that the thing in front of them was a chip.

"This is really a chip!"

"pretty close."

"Real biochip."

The more everyone thought about it, the more they felt that it was like this. All kinds of evidence showed that the inconspicuous little box in front of them was really a real biochip.

Zhang Dingkai looked at the real biochip in front of him with complicated eyes, "Originally, I thought that I could quickly master the experimental plan designed by Junior Brother Cheng, successfully mutagenize the target strain, and obtain suitable gene fragments. The progress was good."

"Who would have thought that in this month, he would come up with such a thing quietly."

"It's unbelievable that something like this can actually be produced within a month. It feels even more incredible than the experimental plan designed in two hours."

Zhang Dingkai feels that after joining Cheng Xiang's team, his cognition is changing. The routine was constantly being broken. At some point, I became somewhat used to this kind of thing.

When it comes to other people, they would doubt the authenticity of the things in front of them, but when it comes to Cheng Xiang, they have become accustomed to ignoring this issue.

The more everyone looked at it, the more they marveled at the technology contained in this little thing.

Click...

Suddenly, the door opened.

Everyone turned around and saw that the person coming was Cheng Xiang who had just gone out to pick up someone. Following him were Professor Peng Yongzhong from the School of Information Technology and Professor Zhang Deming from the School of Economics and Management.

The three of them walked quickly towards where everyone was.

Among the three, Professor Peng Yongzhong was the most excited. Even after walking to the laboratory, he kept asking Cheng Xiang to confirm, "Professor Cheng, has it really been done?"

Cheng Xiang smiled helplessly and pointed in front of him, "It's really done. The sample is right in front."

"But how could this be done so quickly? It only took about ten days for us to start exchanging ideas." Peng Yongzhong was still puzzled, and his expression was even more anxious, "How is this possible?"

"Just look at it and you'll find out."

Taking three steps into two steps, Peng Yongzhong quickly walked to the sample display area, and all members of the laboratory got out of the way.

Peng Yongzhong's eyes were deeply attracted by the small black square box in the display area.

He was so excited that he didn't bother to ask, so he couldn't get started directly. Peng Yongzhong changed his position and observed the black square box from different angles. Professor Peng, who has been engaged in hardware teaching and IC design for many years, saw the box in front of him for the first time. After a while, you can clearly tell that this is just a chip, at least, that's how it looks.

"Can you pick it up and read it?" Peng Yongzhong turned around and asked hastily.

"Professor Peng, please." Cheng Xiang smiled and nodded.

Peng Yongzhong was not polite and didn't wear any gloves. He just lifted it up with his hands. If it was really a packaged chip, he still had this ability to protect himself.

Hold it in your hand, a thin piece.

Ordinary people have no reaction to the difference between a few grams and a dozen grams, but just by touch, Peng Yongzhong clearly noticed that the mass of this chip was much lighter than a silicon-based chip of the same volume.

Looking around carefully, Peng Yongzhong couldn't find anything wrong with the casing of the sample package. It looked like a real chip. Moreover, he was very familiar with the pin design of this chip. Wasn't it the one Cheng Xiang had designed by himself a few days ago? ?

Still, it's hard to believe.

Shouldn't it still be just the idea stage? I was just thinking about Cheng Xiang's outstanding performance in biotechnology. Moreover, according to Cheng Xiang's requirements, the design was not complicated and very simple, so I didn't care how incredible the idea was. I just thought about it. In order to save my face, I made a schematic diagram casually. Who would have thought that in just ten days, something like this could actually be made?

"Professor Cheng, does this thing really work? Does it follow the schematic diagram?" Peng Yongzhong asked again. It's not that Peng Yongzhong is talkative, but it's really unbelievable.

"It's true, Professor Peng. It's absolutely true. It was made according to the schematic diagram you gave me."

"Is this really the yeast strain you synthesized in this thing?"

"That's right. They rely on weak electricity to survive and will sleep when they are not working. When the chip receives the electric frequency signal and the light signal, the circular hole will allow light to pass through the circular hole directly above, and the biological population will analyze the spectrum. The corresponding data can be obtained quickly and accurately, and the data can be converted through chemical potential and a structured electric frequency signal can be output." Cheng Xiang explained slowly.

"..." The people in the circle were confused, especially the people in the laboratory who had just gathered around the chip. Guessing on their own and hearing Cheng Xiang's explanation with their own ears were completely different things.

This is really a biochip, a real biochip.
