Chapter 1636 The advantages of hydrological star yeast, fusion
Du Kang frowned slightly: "It is easy to produce, but difficult to preserve!"
Xiao Yi rolled his eyes and replied: "What I mean is whether it can be stored for a long time!"
Since we can produce sterilized cooked beer, we can naturally produce unsterilized draft beer.
Xiao Yi is worried about preservation. Although the beer that has not been sterilized retains the original flavor of the beer, a small number of miscellaneous bacteria also survive!
Over time, bacteria will multiply and the beer will go bad.
"Now our production conditions cannot meet the requirements. To produce draft beer on earth, membrane filtration technology is used to remove various fungi." Du Kang said helplessly, "We do not have this technology now."
Xiao Yi nodded slightly, thought for a moment, and asked: "Is it possible to solve this problem from the perspective of bacteria?"
"In terms of strains?" Du Kang still frowned, but Xiao Yi provided him with a new idea.
Now that they have super fusion machines, it is entirely possible to fuse together the excellent genes of other microorganisms that do not interfere with fermentation.
For example, if a gene that can devour other microorganisms can be integrated into the yeast that Dukang and the others are using now, then there will be no need for sterilization!
Other miscellaneous bacteria are directly eaten away, leaving only yeast.
"For example, let yeast kill all other microorganisms." Xiao Yi said with a smile.
"Well, I understand. I will go to the microbial library of Chaos Star to screen to see if there are any microorganisms that meet our requirements." Du Kang immediately walked to his laboratory.
"Hey, it's already very late now. Let's deal with it tomorrow!" Xiao Yi greeted.
"It's okay, I can't sleep now anyway!" Du Kang waved his hand and continued walking out.
Xiao Yi smiled and shook his head, and did not continue to persuade him. Working under Xiao Yi gave him a high degree of freedom and he could arrange his time freely.
When Du Kang just entered the laboratory, an experimenter came over and said something excitedly.
Du Kang interrupted him and said, "Don't get excited, I don't understand."
The experimenter reacted immediately. He was speaking Chaos Star Language, which Du Kang could not understand. He directly pulled Du Kang and walked towards the incubator.
Du Kang didn't know what happened, so he could only let him pull him over.
Arriving at the incubator, the experimenter carefully took out a petri dish from the incubator and pointed at the petri dish for Du Kang to look at.
Du Kang took the petri dish doubtfully, took a look at it, and then froze.
This petri dish was used to test the microorganisms in the beer sold by Shuiwenxing. The results showed that the colonies on it were very single. It was roughly judged that there was only yeast!
According to the craft of draft beer, there should be other miscellaneous bacteria.
"Is the production process of Hydrogen Star so strong? The microorganisms are controlled so well?" Du Kang frowned and muttered.
With this in mind, Du Kang took out the yeast he was currently using from the incubator nearby and placed it on the test bench.
Start the Super Fusion.
"If microorganisms of the same type are found, are they fused?"
"yes!"
"Please choose to keep some or all of the items in the options below."
Du Kang began to sift through the light curtain cast by the super fusion device.
"Found it!" Du Kang's eyes lit up slightly. He found an advantageous gene in Hydrogen Star yeast that can devour other bacteria.
"Isn't this something that only bacteriophages can do?" Du Kang felt a little incredible. Bacteriophages are a kind of virus. "Will we need to expand the target of fusion in the future?"
Du Kang thought so, and then began to fuse.
There are still some bad genes in Shuiwenxing's yeast. It is precisely because of the existence of those bad genes that makes Shuiwenxing beer so unpleasant to drink!
The fused yeast acquires the ability to phagocytose, so the sterilization step is no longer needed when producing beer in the future!
Du Kang looked at the fused bacteria with satisfaction, and then began to expand and cultivate it.
He didn't expect that the problem of preserving draft beer that he was having a headache just now would be solved so quickly.
"Shui Wenxing's terrible beer is not useless!" Du Kang thought to himself.
However, the key to successfully solving this problem is the super fusion device!
If there were no super fusion device, it would probably take a long time to develop to solve this problem.
After completing the vaccination, Du Kang left the rest to the experimenter and walked back with satisfaction.
It only took an hour from the time he walked into the laboratory to the time he left.
Back in the cockpit, Jiang Yuntian and Ergou were actually there, with wine glasses in their hands.
"You're not done yet! I've finished my work and come back!" Du Kang couldn't help complaining when he saw Jiang Yuntian and the two were still drinking.
"Isn't this waiting for you? You disappeared while drinking. I thought you collapsed in some bathroom!" Jiang Yuntian replied with a smile, "Besides, the island owner said that we should drink until we are full.
I’m not full yet!”
Xiao Yi heard Du Kang's voice and asked doubtfully: "Is it solved so quickly?"
"Yes, it's all thanks to you, the island owner, otherwise, it would be difficult to solve this problem so quickly!" Du Kang replied.
"Oh? Tell me, how did you solve it?" Xiao Yi asked angrily.
Du Kang explained immediately, and Xiao Yi and the others were surprised.
"So, if Lu Meiyu hadn't helped us brew 200 ml of beer in seconds, this problem might not have been solved so quickly?" Xiao Yi said with a smile.
"Not necessarily. The key to solving this problem is still the super fusion device. Even if we don't have the brewer's yeast from Hydrology Star, we can still use the phages from Chaos Star to try fusion. Of course, this will require longer experimental time!"
Du Kang shook his head and said.
After all, it is not certain whether the fused phage can successfully eat other bacteria!
"This super fusion device is much more advanced than the previous super synthesizer!" Jiang Yuntian exclaimed. Although he couldn't understand the professional terms of those microorganisms, he could tell that Du Kang's use of yeast is now very powerful!
Ergou on the side nodded with deep understanding.
"Come on, let's go together and celebrate the successful solution of the problem of preserving draft beer!" Du Kang poured himself a glass of beer and said.
Everyone raised their glasses.
After Xiao Yi took a sip, he said: "Use the newly fused yeast for production as soon as possible, produce it as soon as possible, and generate profits as soon as possible!"
"Well, I've already made arrangements here!" Du Kang responded.
"You guys continue!" Xiao Yi raised the wine glass in his hand, then walked to the inter-galaxy communicator aside and contacted Zhu Wu.
Soon Zhu Wu connected the line.
"Aren't you asleep yet?" Xiao Yi asked.
"I just got up!" Zhu Wu said helplessly, "You don't know, there was endless emptiness before, which made me feel empty!"
