It's not that difficult to open a hospital in another world, right? Chapter 225 Gretel, Plague Company, and Nordmark arrive! (Mr. Chun, leader of the alliance, adds 7 updates)
Chapter 225 Gretel, Plague Company, and Nordmark arrive! (Mr. Chun, leader of the alliance, adds 7 updates)
Faced with the bloody facts (some rabbits actually spit out pink bubbles), Gretel was finally sent down the mountain. The old man in overalls sent him to the train station, following every step, reluctant to leave:
"You should hurry up! We have already made 30 high-precision microscopes!"
"Everything that has been magnified 100 times has been sold. Anything that is magnified even higher is too expensive and no one will buy it. I'm just waiting for your paper to come out to trick those guys from Black Crow Swamp!"
Grete: "..." You have to speak conscientiously! What is a trap! Please translate for me, what is a **** trap!
Given the size of the bacteria, it can only be seen through microscopic examination! Only by increasing the magnification to 1,000 times can the characteristics of the bacteria be identified! Only by staining the bacteria, various testing methods have been developed, plus animal experiments
, in order to determine which germ caused which disease!
I provided them with research tools, paved the way for a while, and made some money for myself. Isn’t this the best of both worlds? What’s the pitfall?
There was a carriage when he went there. After he came back, several carriages came to the laboratory one after another:
An alchemist specially sent him a custom-made shadowless lamp, installed it in a separate dissecting room, and debugged it for more than half an hour;
Another alchemist brought two space bags, one bottle after another, and put down all the dyes that could be found on the market and in the laboratory, as well as all the liquids and solids that can be dyed, as well as alcohol, sulfuric acid, and nitric acid.
…a whole bunch of drugs;
The third alchemist who came to the door was ordered to settle with Gretel: the shadowless lamp had not been sold yet, and the microscope was settled with contribution points. In addition, Gretel received a total of 87 gold coins and 5 silver coins.
9 copper coins - a share of pencil sales.
It must be said that the production and sales capabilities of the Alchemy Guild are truly outstanding.
oops!
Rich again!
There are gold coins again!
You can make things again, no, you can have money to make mills and ghosts work, and gold coins to work!
Hearing the sound of jingling coins, Gretel was filled with joy.
He had just finished packing his things, and soon the fourth, fifth, and sixth vehicles arrived - this time it was not a carriage, but a flatbed truck pulled by manpower. A cart full of rabbits, and a cart full of rabbit feed.
, a cart of seaweed and seastone flowers, with several large pieces of beef and mutton placed on top. The color is bright, and it looks like it was just killed today.
Ah...how much does this cost...
Bernard's eyes sparkled next to him. Gretel glanced at him, pursed his lips, and took out his wallet with heartache. My gold coins, my small money, I have to say goodbye before they are warm...
"This... you don't need to pay for it, you don't need to pay for it." The boss who followed the escort hurried forward, nodded and bowed, and waved his hands repeatedly: "The council has already paid!"
Grete turned to look at him. The boss was wearing a bronze velvet coat, with the collar and hem turned white. On the hidden part of the cuffs, a small six-pointed star was embroidered with blue silk thread. He casually threw an identification technique on it, and on the six-pointed star
A shadow appeared, obviously a supplier authorized by the parliament.
Gretel was slightly relieved. Looking down, the boss's high leather boots were splashed with mud and exuded a fishy smell. It was obvious that seaweed was transported from the port area and shipped directly here.
He ran from the back of the second carriage to the front, nodded and bowed, and handed over a sheet that was folded in half:
"My lord, please check it. If the quantity is OK, I will go and settle the account with the council."
Grete glanced at it and saw a dark skull mark flashing on the lower right corner of the list...
He opened the list. A plume of black smoke came out from the mark, and the mandibles on the skull opened and closed, making a dry mechanical sound:
"Little Gretel, hurry up, the plague branch is waiting!"
Gretel: "..." No, this project has been transferred to Black Crow Swamp?
The Alchemy Guild is so quick! Or you don’t want to pay, so you just used the previous paper to trick Black Crow Swamp into becoming the sponsor, and put out the project list?
No matter what, it was nice to have someone pay. Gretel suddenly stopped being dumb, his heart stopped hurting, and his head straightened up. He glanced at the list, turned his head, and commanded the barbarian:
"Bernard, go count the rabbits! There are 20 rabbits in the car. Check whether the number is correct and whether each one is healthy!"
Experimental animals are in place, experimental equipment is in place, and various experimental materials - such as various dyes for bacterial staining, sea stone flowers for agar, beef and mutton for broth culture media... are also in place one by one. Gretel is here
He went into seclusion and poured out his penicillin happily.
Well, the environment in the laboratory is really good...you don't have to worry about food, clothing, and wind and rain. Except for the fact that the laboratory is a little noisy and the sound of horse hooves passing by outside from time to time, there is basically nothing to criticize.
Of course, this kind of sound of horse hooves is also because the city of Nevis has expanded the warning area to include his laboratory, so it still feels very safe...
"Ah... do experiments, do experiments, do experiments..."
Doing bacterial culture experiments is actually very boring. Especially since you have to cook the culture medium yourself, dye the color yourself, use iodine and so on, and start by burning the seaweed yourself...
If you are just a science enthusiast and want to do an experiment for fun, then forget it. Making results adds a sense of accomplishment. It doesn't matter if you can't make results. You have already enjoyed the process anyway.
However, Gretel-san must rely on these simple experimental conditions to really achieve results...
"Ah - there are still 500 samples to be dyed ahhhhhhhhhh~~"
In the empty laboratory, where he was the only one, Grete let out a heartfelt wail.
Bacterial dyeing is a technical job that relies on materials. In Heartland City, Grete searched for dyes in the whole city and tried them all, but he only found a dye extracted from wood, which could dye cells.
Light blue.
The reserves of the Magic Council are much richer than those of the small Heartland City. There are three to four hundred kinds of dyes sent to the laboratory - including acid, alkali, and various chemicals.
This workload is becoming more and more terrifying to the point that people dare not look directly at it.
However, such a large amount of materials did not achieve much other than increasing Gretel's fatigue - except for a red dye, the others were either stained or washed away with water.
"I want gentian violet! Crystal violet!" Grete flipped the table angrily. Now that we have iodine and red dye, if we give him gentian violet, he will be able to distinguish between Gram-positive and Gram-negative! However, everything
The prerequisite is for him to obtain Gentian Purple!
Grete wrote angrily, pressing the sharpened pencil against the white paper and poking two holes in a row. His demand list was brought back by the supplier boss. On the third day, a magician came to the door and delivered a space bag.
Material:
"This is our newly found purple dye. This is conch purple, this is mountain violet, this is lac bug powder, this is lithospermum violet... This is the solution extracted from gentian flower. Although it is not purple, we also
I brought them here, and by the way, there are two bundles of gentian flowers here...and there is no gentian here, but there are different kinds of snake galls and fish galls here, you can use them as you like..."
Gretel: "T_T..."
How did the Gram senior find gentian violet back then? What is the chemical formula of this thing? How was it synthesized?
Grete searched hard and vaguely remembered that this thing was a mixture of tetramethylpararosaniline chloride, pentamethylpararosaniline chloride, and hexamethylpararosaniline chloride...
The name alone is difficult to pronounce. If it weren't for the memory that comes with traveling back in time, he wouldn't even be able to recite the official name. As for how to make this thing, Grete said that he is not a chemical engineering major... Well, the pharmacy major next door does it.
Is it past gentian violet?
It's so hard for me, I have nothing...
The only way to relieve the worry is dissection. Grete spawned the bacteria he had produced, purified them, spawned them again, purified them again, and used different methods to toss them on the rabbits:
Mix it into the feed and feed it to the rabbits;
Let the rabbits' nasal cavities and respiratory tracts be wiped;
Make a small incision on the skin of the rabbit and apply it on the skin wound...
Then, observe, measure physical signs, and record the course of the disease. When the rabbit is dead, or half-dead and dying, kill it again, cut open the organs one by one, and observe the damage to the organs.
Fortunately, he can still dissect, and he can still dissect dozens or twenty rabbits every day to maintain his touch... Every day he cultured, cultured and stained, he would have thought that he was no longer a surgeon and had switched to a laboratory...
"Well... Rabbit No. A03, the whole body is dehydrated, the skin is dry and inelastic, the subcutaneous tissue and muscles are dehydrated, the heart, liver, and spleen are shrunk due to dehydration... the small intestine is obviously edema... the kidneys are necrotic..."
Grete took a look and recorded something. After writing everything, he quickly glanced at the previous records:
"Feeding at 8:05 in the morning on the 21st. The disease started at 2:37 in the afternoon... The excrement was like rice swill... The excrement was smeared and the results were as follows..."
In the corner of the record book, there is a hand-drawn schematic diagram. The bacteria on it are like commas and a group of tadpoles, arranged in groups and moving lively.
Very good. Combining the shape of the bacteria, the onset process, the time of death and the autopsy results, it is basically certain that this thing is 90% likely to be Vibrio cholerae.
Gretel showed a satisfied smile. He followed the numbers on the record book, carefully took out two petri dishes, and kept them separately. One was used to account for the Necromancy School, and the other was kept to prepare the cholera vaccine——
Living in this world where you have nothing to do and rely entirely on physical fitness and treatment, there are not many vaccines around you, and you always feel that your sense of security is very low.
Looking around the locker again, Gretel's smile became even brighter. Suspected Staphylococcus aureus, culture completed; suspected Pseudomonas aeruginosa, culture completed; suspected Shigella dysenteriae, culture completed...
Including today's Vibrio cholerae, he has cultured, isolated, and verified seven types of pathogenic bacteria. With three more, he can conclude the exam!
Ugh...but why haven't penicillin been found yet...
Obviously he has worked so hard. Every day he spreads a table of petri dishes and sprinkles soil, dust, and all kinds of imaginable things into the culture media of Staphylococcus aureus, Mycobacterium tuberculosis, and various bacteria...
Why? Goddess of luck, why doesn’t she favor him?
"Ah ah ah - it's getting cold. If it drags on any longer, there will be no more melons!"
The lucky thing of penicillin! The strongest culture medium! If the weather gets colder, it will be gone. He wants to get this antibiotic quickly, but there is even less hope!
