Chapter 441 Vessel Doctor

The northern part of Yuanfan collar belongs to Alwin’s high standard biological laboratory.

In the glass still, broken green leaves, red, yellow, and purple petals are constantly rolling in the boiling water, and the hot steam is carried from the oil storage cells The separated essential oil rises.

Through the condenser above the distiller, it continuously flows into the spiral Condenser surrounded by cold water on the outside, and the last drop drips into the collection bottle below.

A sterile gloved hand removes the clear collection bottle that has been filled with the oil-water mixture and replaces it with a new one.

Da!

The youngster in protective clothing uses the laboratory equipment at hand to separate the oil and water with ease, and then fills the extracted essential oil into several glass bottles.

“teacher, the essential oil of pineapple flower has been extracted, do you want to take a look?”

Distillation is the most commonly used method for extracting plant essential oils. .

About 95% of all kinds of essential oils are extracted by distillation, and others include pressing, solvent extraction, etc., which are suitable for medicinal ingredients of different properties.

Now this simple preparation process does not require Alwin to do it himself, and second disciple Calvin is more than enough.

After taking the finished product in Calvin’s hands, Alwin did several sets of control killing tests on the collected [Super Cyst Fungus], and got the expected results.

Holding the test records, he walked towards the Medical Academician who was working on the other side of the lab.

“Dr. Taylor, pineapple flower essential oil is stable in nature and has an excellent killing effect on this pathogen. It is also the most suitable for large-scale preparation. I think this is the good medicine we are looking for.”

“Split-leaf pineapple flower? I’ll take a look.”

Shortly after parting with Dr. Taylor in Alwin’s party, Gary led a group of guards to find him and escort him To Yuanfan collar.

When Yuanfan led the first batch of [Cyst Attendants] attacks, causing a panic infection, he helped a lot in time. Of course, not only because of the doctor’s vocation, but because of his great value as a medical professional wizard, he was originally a guest of the Marquis and his wife.

Wait until Alwin and his entourage travel together in wind and rain, flying across the entire area of New Granada and the yellow golden sea to Yuanfan collar. Dr. Taylor, who was already prepared, used the knowledge of the “Visaari School” inheritance to lock a series of targeted herbal medicines using primordial strains as a medium: Butterfly, butterbur, split-leaf pineapple

In fact, those who despise traditional Chinese medicine do not know that even the first western medicines are mostly from grass roots, bark, flowers.

It’s just that the Potion Masters have researched and extracted the most effective, single-ingredient chemicals. This is the purer and single western medicine than traditional Chinese medicine, which is extracted by westerners using chemical methods.

For example, aspirin is another name for acetylsalicylic acid, and it is a synthetic compound produced through the synthesis of the active ingredient “salicylic alcohol”, which is named after a “silk willow” of Willow Tree.

The original source of the API is the resin extracted from the bark of the Willow Tree and the sap extracted from the leaves of the Willow Tree.

Quinine, a powerful antimalarial drug, also comes from a flowering evergreen plant, the famous cinchona tree.

Originally, the bark of the cinchona tree was widely used as an antimalarial drug. Two hundred years after it was used as medicine, Potion Master extracted an alkaloid called “quinine” from it, which turned it into a Western medicine in the conventional sense.

At present, in this era of great navigation, with the gradual development of experimental medicine.

Natural plant extracts or essential oils have begun to gradually replace bottled decoctions with complex ingredients from wizard “potions”, becoming an important weapon in the hands of Potion Master, and will soon become the main existence of mundane world medicine. form.

In another 100 or 200 years, natural substances will be either raw materials for the manufacture of medicines or reference samples of artificial products. Chemists will also produce more and more chemical compounds that are not found in nature, contributing to the great prosperity of Western medicine.

Of course, it is now in the initial stage of medical science, and Alwin and the others are far from possessing the corresponding hardware conditions and knowledge system.

Extracting essential oils containing active ingredients directly from plants is currently the easiest and the only way to produce enough medicine to solve the disease at the fastest speed, rather than chemically replicating its complex effects. Simple.

As for the pharmaceutical giants in modern society, why do they never promote these natural medicines with complex ingredients? It is not because they are not effective, but just because it is difficult for pharmaceutical giants to obtain the patent rights of the corresponding pharmaceutical formulas. And just profit from it.

This problem does not exist for Alwin.

In collaboration with Dr. Taylor, they finally selected from several candidate plants a plant widely distributed in the subtropics and tropics of the new continent: Asteraceae .

The essential oil directly extracted from it can exert a strong killing effect on the [Super Cyst Fungus] transformed by witchcraft, and has broad-spectrum inhibition even against a variety of other germs. effect.

In particular, this plant has a very wide growth range, and even the most simple and crude distillation extraction method will not destroy the active ingredients, which is convenient for large-scale preparation.

And it’s not like the antibiotics that Alwin is planning to make, which may have strong side effects on humans and require prior allergy testing before use.

This also means that they can go to market directly without having to conduct too complicated human experiments!

“I think there is no problem, Mr. Alwin. Although it is not the best sterilization effect among them, this medicine can fully meet all our current requirements.”

After reading the experimental report and the comparison of several alternative medicines, Dr. Taylor was also somewhat excited to agree with Alwin’s choice.

Sha..Sha..Sha..

By the way, from the professional point of view of an excellent doctor, at the bottom of the report left a report on how to use this new medicine prescription.

Combined with this plant essential oil named [Ruritin] because of its color and several adjuvants, it is expected to be enough to cure the second generation of patients infected by [Cyst Servant] within three days.

However, after being absorbed by the cyst fungus too much nutrition, weakness is inevitable for a long time.

As for the first generation of patients directly infected by the “Plague Virus Cloud”, it is not yet certain. Because they don’t have such patients at hand for the time being, even if there are people who come here, they have already been burned as a source of infection.

And Alwin was very suspicious that after killing two members of the “Poison Epidemic School”, they would dare to continue spreading the germs with such fanfare.

Although this time, because of various coincidences and the pertinence of the road, they fell into their own hands.

But I can’t question the viability of the “Poison Epidemic School” and the powerful threat to the ordinary person.

At the same time, Alwin couldn’t help thinking, just a single germ in the Crystal Cave can create such a big trouble, then after the outbreak of various pathogens that are not well known by human beings, they will have What kind of formidable power?

Even the common diseases that are very prevalent among ocean-going sailors: malaria, yellow fever, blood dysentery, edema, colds, parasitic diseases. These are more troublesome than the other, not just by strength can be solved.

So it’s time for Calvin to leave the lab with that report and a warrant issued by Alwin to gather the ingredients and call in artisans to prepare for the mass preparation.

Alwin asked the doctor who was arranging the experimental equipment:

“Taylor Academician, after finishing the matter here, do you have any other plans?”

p>

After finding the special medicine, Taylor, who was just sighed in relief, didn’t expect Alwin to ask this question, and after thinking for a while, he answered him honestly:

“I may choose to continue Traveling to a magical new continent, improving medical skills in the process of continuous treatment. If I can make some kind of groundbreaking medical results, and leave a mark in the medical canon, I will not waste my several decades of practicing medicine.”

Alwin also knew that the doctor who seemed to be a middle age person was actually close to seventy years old. Just because of the nature of the official wizard and the special knowledge in his hands, his physical condition is much better than that of the ordinary person.

It is completely unimaginable that such an “old man” can travel far across the ocean and across the Black Sea to a new continent without firm belief or obsession.

So, after hearing his words, Alwin must have decided that his plan this time should be stable.

He looked into Taylor’s eyes and said sincerely:

“With such great ambitions, you are destined to be a great doctor.

It just so happens that I have an idea that may inspire you.

Essential oils derived from plants have multiple effects because they contain certain natural ingredients.”

The other person can’t help but listen. , Alwin dropped a bombshell.

“And I discovered a special class of substances produced by a certain microorganism, which can also be used to treat various bacterial infections or diseases caused by pathogenic microorganisms, and I named them: antibiotics.

And their antibacterial effect is much better than that of natural plant extracts, and they are also destined to be the gospel of countless patients suffering from diseases.

The most important thing is that this is a kind of A brand new category of medicine, his inventor will be destined to be remembered in the history of medicine!”

Looking directly at Dr. Taylor, who was blushing and short of breath, Alwin finally showed a devil-like smile:

“I haven’t completed the experimental part, and the second author of the paper is currently unavailable. I don’t know.”

“Please give me this opportunity to contribute to the cause of human medicine. !”

Looking at Dr. Taylor, who had bowed to the end in front of him, Alwin felt extremely happy and clenched his fist lightly:

“Ship doctor, get!”
