Latest URL: The test tube was slowly tilted, and the light yellow liquid contained in the test tube was drawn into a thin, transparent line and landed on the lying mineral water bottle.

In the first few seconds when it was sprinkled, there was no trick to see. After a few breaths, some very small bubbles began to appear in the solution attached to the outer wall of the bottle. The originally clear and transparent solution began to become cloudy, including the color presented, which gradually deepened from light yellow to deep yellow.

After a short while, the bacteria, which had been fully activated, started the first round of division and proliferation.

Just like a half-sized child who can eat a poor old man, after splitting into two separate individuals, the growing cells will show a stronger appetite. Coupled with the doubling of the quantity, the 'food intake' will also double on the original basis...

The speed at which the solution devoured the walls of the plastic bottle suddenly increased a lot.

In less than two minutes, the bottle that was originally intact was riddled with small holes, and the mineral water contained in the bottle also flowed out along these small holes.

"How about it, isn't the efficiency okay?" Stark had been paying attention to the change in Namor's expression, and seeing his surprised expression, Stark smiled smugly again.

"It's unbelievable, faster than I imagined." His tone was full of emotion, Namor looked up at Stark, and gave him a thumbs up with admiration: "As expected of the world's number one genius, Mr. Stark, this invention of yours is really amazing, and I have opened my eyes today, and it was so worth it."

At the same time as Namo gave praise, the speed at which the plastic bottle melted suddenly slowed down a lot.

Seeing this scene, the female Sea Clan standing beside her frowned unconsciously, and let out a small hum full of doubts.

"This is because the water in the bottle has flowed out, reducing the concentration of microorganisms many times." Without asking, Stark just glanced at the sink formed by the sinking of the tabletop, and immediately guessed what the other party was thinking: "As the concentration decreases, the speed of phagocytosis will naturally decrease. But don't worry, after they split a few more times, the speed will increase again and recover... No, it should be faster than before."

"Can you still speed up?" Namor was surprised again.

"Yes, under my preparation, this kind of bacteria can divide for five rounds in total, that is to say, their final number will reach thirty-two times the original number." Having said that, Stark raised his finger and returned The test tube held in Namo's hand: "More than half of the original solution in this tube is culture solution, and the concentration of microorganisms is only about 40%. That is to say, there are only about 8 milliliters of microorganisms in 20 milliliters of solution." .”

"Next, you can draw a conclusion with a little calculation. After five divisions, the total amount of bacteria is about 250 milliliters... That is to say, in the final total of more than 500 less than 600 milliliters of the solution, the bacteria can account for almost half of the amount, which is slightly higher than the concentration when it is packed in the test tube."

"Of course, this is just a theoretical calculation and has no reference value. After all... there is only one plastic bottle here, and the little 'nutrient' it has is simply not enough to feed so many bacteria. The second Generation? Or the third generation? Anyway, these bacteria must not survive to divide five times, and it will disappear without a trace."

The lower the concentration, the worse the efficiency, which is well understood.

Instead of dwelling on this point, Namo was more concerned about another issue: "What if... the bottle is not filled with mineral water, but seawater with a higher salt content? This kind of bacteria can adapt to such a high salt content and survive in seawater." Come down?"

"Your question is on point." Stark raised his eyebrows proudly: "In fact, the reason why I developed this bacterium is to clean up the plastic waste in the sea. In other words, From the beginning, I set the direction and deliberately bred it to be the type that can adapt perfectly to the sea environment."

"...In other words, in seawater, can it digest plastic faster?" Namor asked expectantly.

"Probably can increase by about ten percent." Nodding, Stark replied with a smile: "Of course, compared to now, it must still be many times slower. After all, this is a closed tank, and all the added value comes out. All the bacteria will be concentrated together. But in the sea, there is no such boundary, so... I said this, you can understand, right?"

"It will continue to spread with the flow of sea water, and it won't stay in the distance, right? It's not difficult to understand, I think I should understand."

"That's right, that's what it means." Stark nodded and continued: "Although it won't stay in a certain place all the time, as long as new bacteria are added periodically according to a certain frequency, the cleaning efficiency is still guaranteed. of."

Hearing this, Shi Xiaolei also made fun of it and interjected with an idea: "I think it's a good idea to use it as an 'air freshener'."

It may take some time to dispose of large pieces of plastic waste, but those plastic particles wrapped in seawater that are so small that they are difficult to detect with the naked eye may only take a moment.

Spray it and you can filter out a small cloud of sea water. Isn't this feeling the same as the freshener used to deal with the abnormal smell in the air?

"Lock is right, this is indeed a very good usage." Nodding, Stark agreed: "When you leave, you can take some back to try. Although I don't know that the house you built underwater is a What does it look like, but I think each has its own room. If the door is closed tightly, and a little more blends into the room... Hehe, believe me, you will be able to feel the change in water quality in a short while. "

"Sounds pretty good, but..." Looking at Stark, Namor asked hesitantly: "This thing should be non-toxic, right? If you inhale seawater containing this kind of bacteria, will it endanger your health? ?”

"Well..." Scratching his head, Stark smiled a little awkwardly: "I can only confirm that it is not harmful to humans, nor will it harm other marine life. UU Reading www.uukanshu.com As for You...may have to do a few more experiments before drawing conclusions. After all, I haven’t collected any data yet, so I don’t know how different you are from ordinary people.”

"You mean...you must cooperate with you to complete the experiment in order to determine whether it will endanger our health?"

"Yes, if you want to ensure safety, it is an essential part." Noticing the change in Namod's expression, and remembering what Shi Xiaolei said when he introduced the origin of the Haizu, Stark quickly added two more words. Sentence: "Of course, the experiments I'm talking about are all carried out under the premise of 100% guarantee of safety. I guarantee that the scene hundreds of years ago will never be repeated."

The tone was very firm, but in the final analysis, it was just a verbal guarantee.

Having personally experienced the Spanish invasion and watched many people die because of the virus brought by the Spaniards, from Namor's point of view, it is of course impossible to make a decision based on Stark's guarantee.

"...give me some time, I have to calm down and think about it."
