In China in the old society, there was no well-established industry, and the same is true of the pharmaceutical industry. There may be western medicine in the cities, but in the vast rural areas, you can only rely on Chinese herbal medicine to cure diseases. This kind of Chinese herbal medicine, in Lu Xun In his pen, it is useless, it is purely a thing that ignores human life.
Chinese herbal medicine is of course effective, but it comes slowly. Therefore, Western medicine is still used to treat some acute diseases. Moreover, Western medicine is even more indispensable if the wounded are to be rescued.
In some big cities, there used to be some modern pharmaceutical factories, but after the war began, these factories had to stop production, some were relocated, some were abandoned, and the huge domestic pharmaceutical industry was greatly damaged. After the successive fall of Shanghai, Guangzhou and other places, almost all large domestic pharmaceutical companies went bankrupt, and the devils also imposed a comprehensive blockade on the import of medical supplies into China. Medical devices that cannot be produced domestically cannot be imported, and a large number of analgesics, hemostasis, and antibacterial drugs urgently needed by the frontline wounded are also scarce.
When the devils occupied most of China and Lao Jiang retreated to Chongqing, the famous hump route began. Half of the materials transported on this route were medicines.
After all, there are still a large number of wounded on the battlefield waiting for medicine. Some pharmaceutical companies are also working hard to produce drugs. Shanghai Xinyi Chemical Pharmaceutical Factory independently developed a sulfonamide drug to make up for the shortage of anti-inflammatory drugs.
In addition to hospitals and pharmaceutical factories, students from many medical colleges and universities also spontaneously participated in this drug war. In this era, knowledge is power has been fully embodied.
The Eighth Route Army is no exception. The blockade faced by the Eighth Route Army is even more serious, so it can only be self-reliant. However, the medicine of the Eighth Route Army, which is launched by the local method, has formed a big contradiction with the sterilization environment required by modern medical knowledge. Even if the Eighth Route Army Even if there are medicines, what to use to pack them is also a big problem.
(Suddenly I thought of the northern kimchi country. If there is no infusion bottle, I will use beer bottle instead, wash it clean and use it. If there is no medical cotton, then grow it yourself. This country does not cost money to see a doctor, but the conditions are really simple enough. .)
It is definitely good news if you have modern machinery and equipment that can produce glass containers for medical use. The brigade commander knows the meaning of it, so he can't wait to run to the glass factory.
In the abandoned glass factory, Qin Baoshan is leading people to carefully clean the dust on the equipment. It is written in foreign languages, but fortunately it is the most common English, so Qin Baoshan knows it.
After seeing this thing, Qin Baoshan felt like he had found a treasure, so he sent someone to inform Li Yunlong that he was coming, but unexpectedly, the brigade commander also ran over.
Think about it, too, this is almost equivalent to cutting first and playing later, which caused a big problem for the Eighth Route Army headquarters. The brigade commander must have come to ask the teacher to inquire about the crime. However, having the machine in front of him is a great credit.
"Brigade Commander, this kind of machinery and equipment can produce various types of glass bottles. After changing the mold, it can produce injections." Qin Baoshan said: "In the future, our Eighth Route Army's pharmaceutical factory can use it to produce our own Injections, penicillin, bupleurum, etc., the soldiers on the front line can get better medical treatment.¡±
The brigade commander nodded: "Great, great, this is what our Eighth Route Army needs most. However, with glass bottles, we can't do without liquid medicine. Our pharmaceutical factory can't produce penicillin, Bupleurum What are these things?"
Even if the brigade commander is a Confucian general with a lot of knowledge, he doesn't know what Qin Baoshan is talking about.
Penicillin is an important antibiotic. Its appearance has saved the lives of many people who were on the verge of death due to infection. However, it took a long time for the discovery of penicillin.
Although the British bacteriologist Alexander Fleming first discovered penicillin in 1928, which is also the world's first antibiotic - penicillin, but the technology at that time was not advanced, and Fleming did not have a clear understanding, so, Penicillin was not isolated, only research papers were published, and the papers were not taken seriously by the scientific community.
In this way, until the World War II period.
Framin cultivated the strain of Penicillium from generation to generation, and then provided the strain in 1939 to the British pathologist Florey and biochemist Chain who were preparing to study penicillin systematically. In 1940, Chain finally purified a little bit of penicillin, but it did not reach practical value. It was not until 1941 that Flory isolated the bacteria from the soil brought back from the airports of various countries when a large number of pilots went out to perform missions. species, increasing the production of penicillin from 2 units per cubic centimeter to?40 units. This finally has practical value, and by 1942, the United States began mass production of penicillin.
It is precisely because of the use of penicillin that the lives of a large number of Allied soldiers were saved. In the East, no one has heard of penicillin.
Penicillin is very important. It can save the lives of a large number of soldiers. Although this has nothing to do with military production, Qin Baoshan has made up his mind and must promote the production of penicillin in the pharmaceutical factory of the Eighth Route Army.
Perhaps the production of penicillin will be very difficult, but Bupleurum should be easier to talk about.
"Bupleurum is a kind of traditional Chinese medicine. Brigadier, have you never heard of it?" Qin Baoshan asked.
Chinese medicine?
The brigade commander was immediately surprised: "How do you make injections of traditional Chinese medicine?"
This is simply nonsense. Traditional Chinese medicine is traditional Chinese medicine, and Western medicine is western medicine. These are basically two systems. Now, Qin Baoshan actually said that he would stuff a Chinese medicine into a glass bottle, and then directly stick it under the skin of a person through a syringe. ?
"Why not?" Qin Baoshan said: "Bupleurum is an important medicinal material. It can clear away heat and detoxify, reduce inflammation and relieve pain. In the past, it was used by boiling medicine. It needs to be digested before it can enter the blood. Now, we directly extract the active ingredients in Bupleurum and inject them into the human body, so that the body can absorb them faster, and it is more convenient on the battlefield. Why not? Western medicine is very effective, but , Our traditional Chinese medicine is not inferior, and this combination of Chinese and Western medicine will definitely play a better role."
It's really rare and strange, when I was sick and had a fever when I was a child, the injections I gave were Bupleurum and Antongding? (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
