Rebirth of the God-level Xueba

Chapter 62 Absorption Coefficient

Yang Rui also had the experience of borrowing experimental equipment, but instead of lending the equipment out of the laboratory, he used it in other people's laboratories.

Generally speaking, the equipment purchased by the teacher of the same school can always be borrowed once in a while. If it is purchased uniformly in the school and placed in a certain teacher's laboratory, it will be more comfortable to borrow. .

But in any case, borrowing experimental equipment is a bit like asking for help, and people in ivory towers are actually the least willing to ask for help.

When Yang Rui was a graduate student, the door would be closed from time to time. Sometimes people were preparing to use instruments, sometimes the students who took the keys were in trouble, and sometimes the teacher who took the keys was making animals at home and couldn’t come. Sometimes the mentor who holds the key works as a beast in the office and cannot come, and sometimes the mentor who holds the key works as a beast in the laboratory and does not open the door...

No matter what kind of closed door, when you eat it, you will always feel that your lips are hot, your stomach is hot, and sometimes you will feel that chrysanthemum is hot.

Yang Rui didn't know if someone was used to eating behind closed doors, but he had tasted a wide variety of closed doors over the past few years, but he still didn't get used to it.

Sometimes, when an experiment is at a critical juncture, I am excited and nervous to take the materials to other laboratories, and I am excited and nervous to wait for others to use up the equipment before borrowing them. , I feel a little ashamed.

But you can’t help it, the school is not good enough, the college is not good enough, the tutor is not good enough, and you are not good enough, that’s all.

Sometimes Yang Rui also thinks: "When I become a big cow in the future, I will also buy instruments on the first floor. I will use whichever I want, and I can use it whenever I want..."

It's a pity that the experimental equipment is more expensive than the house, and there are too many graduate students who want to be a master. After all, Yang Rui did not realize his dream.

Instead, in the 1980s, Yang Rui saw the hope of building his own laboratory.

On the one hand, he has the need to build his own laboratory, on the other hand, the current common instruments are relatively cheap. Of course, in terms of domestic economic conditions, the instrument is still not cheap, but it is still affordable.

The most important thing is that the requirements for becoming a big cow have become lower for publishing articles now. You need to be famous in China, and you can write high-end papers without buying the most advanced equipment in the world. This kind of opportunity, that is, in the early 1980s for several years.

In fact, there are very few researchers who continue to do research during the ten-year catastrophe, and even fewer can keep up with the progress of foreign research. Everyone is catching up with and learning from the latest foreign research.

To put it simply, researchers all over China are copying foreign research.

Those who can speak English should copy more high-end ones, and those who can’t speak English should copy second-best ones.

You can’t do it without copying. The level of scientific research in China was weak in the 1960s, and foreign countries took the lead for more than ten years. If you don’t copy the latest research from foreign countries, research will be repeated research, which is meaningless at all.

Of course, there are also some people who don't care, and are willing to do repeated research, so-called "self-reliance, filling the gap in the country". This kind of people also have great achievements, and they are special people in special times.

In contrast, those who do theoretical research are naturally happier than those who do experimental research.

For example, if mathematicians want to understand the latest progress abroad, they only need to buy periodicals and read them. If they can read well, they can keep up with the research progress. If they can do experimental physics or biology, they must repeat experiments. It is okay to do fewer experiments. , but if you don’t do an experiment and just read the journals, you will lose the essence after all.

For Yang Rui who already has financial resources, it is not expensive to do experiments that meet the Chinese level, but for ordinary researchers, it is not necessarily so.

The middle-aged uncle looked at Yang Rui anxiously, saw that he hadn't spoken for a long time, and said pitifully: "See if this is okay, I will move out on Saturday afternoon, and on Monday night, before the morning, I promise to send it back to you. "

Hearing what he said was pitiful, Yang Rui also felt a little soft-hearted, and said, "Please introduce yourself first."

He didn't agree first, it's inconvenient to borrow the experimental equipment after all, not to mention the analytical balance, which is extremely easy to damage when moved around, it's just such a low EQ person who doesn't care about the requests of acquaintances and acquaintances.

Only then did the middle-aged uncle come to his senses, and sneered: "Look at me, I'm from Institute 807, I'm an organic chemistry student, and my surname is Wei Mingzhenxue."

"Then what experiment are you going to do?"

Wei Zhenxue hesitated and said, "Solvent extraction of coal."

Wei Zhenxue seemed to think that Yang Rui didn't understand, and Wei Zhenxue explained: "It is to study the extraction performance of coal with solvents, and to investigate what additives and auxiliary methods can be used to change the extraction of coal. Generally, there are ultrasonic waves, electromagnetic radiation, and chemical treatments..."

"The solubility of coal." Yang Rui summed it up in one sentence.

"Yes... that's it."

"I thought Institute 807 was for chemistry, but it seems to be the Institute of Coal Science?" Ordinary chemical researchers would not touch coal.

"Nanhu Coal Research Institute." Wei Zhenxue lacked a good impression of the unit, took off his glasses and rubbed his eyes, and said, "You know my name and the unit I work for, so you can lend me the analytical balance now." right?"

"You..." Yang Rui nodded with a smile, and then refused with a smile: "No!"

"why not?"

"I know the name and work unit of many people, why should I lend it to you?" Yang Rui asked back. In fact, he does not like coal chemistry. It is understandable that the country wants to engage in coal energy, but based on the experience of 30 years later, coal really lacks the value of vigorous development, especially after the smog in the capital, coal has once again entered the long-term It is difficult to say when it will restart.

Researching coal chemistry in the 1980s was not a waste of time, but it was not worth the heavy investment.

Wei Zhenxue, who was not good at words, was dumbfounded, and said: "You asked me several questions, just to make sure if you can lend it to me? I told you all, what are you dissatisfied with?"

"There are some." Yang Rui signaled He Cheng to take the analytical balance away, and at the same time stopped Wei Zhenxue who was running after the analytical balance, and said slowly: "The Coal Research Institute is a rich unit, even if your analytical balance is broken, I don't care I believe there is only one analytical balance in your institute, why would you want to borrow it from me?"

Wei Zhenxue's voice became quieter: "The other analytical balances are all occupied."

"So that's the case." In fact, Yang Rui can guess a little without him saying it. This Wei Zhenxue's EQ is so low that he is not too different from those who have only read Mao Xuan for the rest of his life. It is only natural that he messed up the personnel in the research institute.

In the minds of many people, the university seems to be a white ivory tower, and the research institute is like a green haven, peaceful like the slow steps of a beautiful girl... Maybe for students and masters, the university can indeed be called an ivory tower, at least it is A mouthful of white teeth, but for ordinary faculty and staff who are still chasing fame and fortune, the university is the corpse of an elephant. If you don't fight for it, you can't lie down on it and eat and drink with peace of mind.

Wei Zhenxue's analytical balance is broken, and no one is obliged to lend it to him. The research work is very heavy. Whenever inspiration comes, using the laboratory at any time is the most wonderful experience. It is not impossible to lend it to others, but Wei Zhenxue with such a weird personality People are really not a good "roommate".

Yang Rui doesn't like people with Wei Zhenxue's personality very much. The so-called Joe who writes articles in core journals and holds Einstein is a difficult type of person to deal with.

If you want to share the analytical balance with this middle-aged uncle for no reason in the next long time, it will definitely not be a good memory.

Yang Rui's heart that had just softened hardened again, and said, "Analytical balances are not suitable for frequent handling. It's not a good idea to lend them to you. It's the same even if you ask the principal."

"How do you know what your principal thinks?" Wei Zhenxue was also stubborn and simply followed them.

Cao Baoming rolled his arms and asked, "What should I do?"

"Let him follow, and he will leave in a while." Yang Rui and others loaded their things into the tricycle first, then took the shuttle bus back to Xi County, and from Xi County back to Xibao Town.

Such a long journey, unexpectedly Wei Zhenxue did not leave.

When he arrived at the school, Yang Rui couldn't chase people away, so he let him into the laboratory.

The slightly dim big tile-roofed house was originally used as a warehouse. When Wei Zhenxue saw it outside, he expressed his contempt and said unabashedly: "It's a pity to entrust you with such a good analytical balance. "

"What does it mean to leave it to us? We bought it." He Cheng is short in stature, but his voice is high, and his retorting voice seems to be able to knock down the tiles.

Wei Zhenxue shrank his neck, followed Yang Rui, walked into it quickly, and said in his mouth: "The ones I bought are the same... ah..."

"The feeling inside and outside the room is different." Yang Rui stood in front of the test bench and said with a smile.

Wei Zhenxue nodded blankly.

There are four incandescent lamps in the room, illuminating the interior brightly.

The upper part of the experimental table is gray and the lower part is white, and the surface is made of terrazzo, which looks smooth and shiny. There is also a sink made of the same material, as well as rare tap water pipes, which can not help showing a unique temperament.

The entire laboratory is arranged according to Yang Rui's requirements. With the analytical balance placed on a special instrument table, the laboratory of Xibao Middle School has also become more upscale.

Wei Zhenxue was somewhat surprised, and said sincerely: "It's done very well."

"Clothes depend on clothes and horses depend on saddles. The quality of a room depends on the decoration. That's fine. If you want to find the principal, go to the dormitory area. We're going to start preparing for the experiment." Yang Rui wanted to send him out with one word.

Wei Zhenxue suddenly enlightened and said, "I'll help you prepare."

As he said that, he took the initiative to come to the instrument table to help debug the analytical balance.

Yang Rui is happy to have someone to help. It is very troublesome to clean up a laboratory, especially in the initial stage. The students don't know how to use anything, so he has to do it all by himself.

Wei Zhenxue can not only help with work, but also teach other students how to do it, which immediately relieved Yang Rui's pressure.

Moreover, he surprisingly persisted for two days.

"Is it true that if you are not crazy, you can't survive?" Yang Rui expressed admiration for Wei Zhenxue's perseverance, but he was still honest and started his own experiment.

He wanted to revise the method for measuring coenzyme q10, more precisely, to revise the absorption coefficient of coenzyme q10.

Until 30 years later, the content of coenzyme q10 was often determined by ultraviolet spectrophotometry, and the basis of this method was the absorption coefficient of coenzyme q10.

In simple words, it is how much light will be absorbed by Coenzyme Q10.

As we all know, in terms of color theory, black has the strongest light absorption and white has the weakest light absorption, but the degree of light absorption of a substance often needs to be measured through a series of experiments.

Generally speaking, if an authoritative organization or person has measured the absorbance, other people can use it accordingly. It will be exhausting to measure every time.

In the domestic drug standards of various provinces and cities used in the 1980s, the absorption coefficient of coenzyme Q10 was copied from foreign books in the 1950s. Yang Rui clearly knew that the content of this part was outdated.

When he was looking for information in later generations, when he came across documents from the 1980s, and when he saw the description of the content of coenzyme q10, he would consciously put a question mark. If he wanted to use the data, he had to do the experiment again to measure it himself.

Therefore, Yang Rui clearly knows that the absorption coefficient of Q10 currently used in China is relatively low.

The reason why this experiment was chosen as a breakthrough is because the absorption coefficient is a definite value, which is a direct feedback from nature, and it will not change due to authority or bureaucracy.

When Yang Rui measured it, it was correct, and no one could refute it if he wrote a paper based on it. For a high school student, this kind of article is not too difficult, but also has a little importance, it is really suitable.

He Cheng and others obediently helped, only Wei Zhenxue, who was teaching the students how to use the instrument while watching Yang Rui's skillful operation, seemed rather reluctant to leave. You are reading, if any!
