Chapter 352 She wants to present it personally!
"It is indeed my job." Lu Xu looked at Su Mei deeply.
He glanced into his own laboratory and suddenly said, "However, President Su, I would like to make a small suggestion on drug production."
"What suggestions do you have? Just tell me." Su Mei responded.
Suddenly, Lu Xu moved aside and made a gesture of invitation to Su Mei: "Please, Dean Su, come in and take a look."
What are you looking at? Su Mei was puzzled, but she still walked in according to Lu Xu's instructions.
After all, this is a public place. Su Mei thought that even if Lu Xu had evil intentions, he would not murder her here.
With trepidation, Su Mei entered the laboratory.
The advanced laboratory was much simpler than hers, but it had basically all the necessary instruments.
This building has a total of six floors. If only the first and second floors are often used, it means that the top four floors are basically idle.
It is a real waste if such a good laboratory is not open to public use.
Ultimately, there are problems with the laboratory's mechanism.
Of course, these are not things Su Mei should consider now.
After entering the laboratory, Su Mei saw Lu Xu distilling liquid.
She didn't look at it carefully, but just glanced at it, and then asked Lu Xu: "What are you doing? Did you let me in so that I can see your experiment?"
"I'm doing this!" Lu Xu handed Su Mei some experimental manuscripts.
Su Mei flipped through a few pages and found that she couldn't quite understand it, but she understood what Lu Xu was doing. She asked, "Are you trying to synthesize prostaglandins?"
"Yes." Lu Xu nodded without hesitation, "From the structure of prostaglandins, it can be made through synthetic processes, and I don't think it will be too difficult.
Extracting from animals is too slow. Moreover, what is extracted from animals is different from that in the human body, and the effect it produces is not as good as that in the human body.
I think it would be best to use synthetic technology to synthesize the same prostaglandins as those in the human body. What do you think, President Su?"
"How long will this synthesis take?" Su Mei asked while looking at the manuscript.
I thought to myself that he was admitted based on his own abilities, and his brain is indeed capable. In the future, this prostaglandin will indeed form a more complete synthesis process.
It’s just that Su Mei had no idea about the synthesis process because it was not in the process book.
You know, in the future, many more types of prostaglandins will be synthesized! Su Mei doesn't know how to synthesize those types. The only thing she knows is that type E can be extracted from animals.
Seeing that Su Mei was absorbed in looking at the manuscript, Lu Xu replied, "It shouldn't take too long. I must have done something wrong. The chemical formula of the compound I synthesized now is different from the one you extracted."
Different molecular formula? Upon hearing this, Su Mei naturally turned to the last page.
Then she saw a D2 prostaglandin molecular formula.
After seeing the final molecular formula, Su Mei silently swallowed her saliva and asked Lu Xu: "Don't you realize that you have discovered something completely new?"
"Isn't it a mistake? Many chemical substances can be combined to form new things, but if it doesn't work, it's meaningless." Lu Xu took the manuscript back from Su Mei. "I don't think this is difficult. There must be some small mistakes along the way. Give me a few more days and I will definitely be able to synthesize it correctly."
Su Mei still believes that Lu Xu can do it.
But how can I tell him that this thing that he thinks is wrong actually has its uses?
Prostaglandin E2 can increase the fluid secreted by the uterus to help pregnant women give birth better. D2 can regulate sleep, which are completely different.
However, if Su Mei told Lu Xu now that this thing he created by mistake is also useful, it would definitely be very strange.
Also, Su Mei doesn't think that chemical reactions will produce useless things.
It may be that Lu Xu was just like this time and did not find the use of that thing.
After spending a week with Lu Xu, this was the first time that Su Mei looked at this young man with a scrutinizing and slightly admiring gaze.
If his last name wasn't Lu, he would be a good candidate worthy of cultivation.
If Su Mei hadn't shown up, Lu Xu would have also been given the focus of training instead of becoming his assistant as he is now.
Su Mei was also very curious: "After you synthesize it, you can directly publish a paper to explain your synthesis process. It will be amazing. Why do you tell me this first?"
"Because it was you who discovered it, I'm just studying your results, so of course I have to tell you." Lu Xu responded.
This answer is somewhat unexpected? Su Mei finds it hard to believe that there is a gentleman in the Lu family. They are people who can kill an innocent family for the sake of power. "It's okay if you don't tell me. Science always moves forward by standing on the shoulders of predecessors. You are doing a brand new research, which has nothing to do with me."
"I just want to tell President Su that the production process of this drug may be simpler than extracting it from animals, and it can also be purer," Lu Xu explained.
Su Mei nodded: "I understand. You work hard, and when the results come out, I will apply for a reward for you!"
"No need for rewards. I just want to ask Dean Su for help with one thing." Lu Xu said to Su Mei.
What conditions are you asking for? Su Mei remained calm: "Tell me what you want."
"I want the password to the dean's laboratory. I want access to it when you're not around." Lu Xu stated his needs directly.
Just a password? Su Mei frowned: "That's all, nothing else."
"That's all." Lu Xu looked away and suddenly said, "This is a task my father assigned to me. He asked me to secretly get the password to your laboratory!"
Huh? What? Huh?
secretly?
Is this a secret? Is it really okay to just say it out loud?
For a moment, Su Mei was completely at a loss for words. She was stunned for a long time and couldn't say a word.
"Is that the password?" Su Mei took a long time to come to her senses. She picked up the pen that Lu Xu had placed on the table, wrote down the password of the laboratory on it, and handed it to Lu Xu: "You can move your experiment to my laboratory today."
"Didn't I say that I'll give it to you after the experiment is successful?" Lu Xu was also a little surprised when he saw the password that Su Mei wrote easily.
He thought it would be a difficult task. Researchers in the past always treated the laboratory as their own secret base. No one told the assistants the laboratory passwords of the twelve professors.
After explaining everything to Lu Xu, Su Mei went downstairs and walked towards her own laboratory.
It's not that she has already believed Lu Xu.
The last time when those successful experiments were sold to Country M at a sky-high price, Su Mei actually asked Country M for three confidential shipping surveillance devices in a covert way.
As far as Su Mei knows, China today does not have this kind of monitoring.
She introduced and installed it secretly, so if anyone wanted to cause trouble on her territory, they had to be prepared to face her violent attack.
She even wanted to hand over the password with both hands.
I just don't know what Lu Xu's intention was in stating so directly what his father had asked him to do?
