Put on a white coat, turn on the light of the "rat room", measure the mice with vernier calipers, and observe and record the ...... of the test efficacyEarly in the morning of the 1st, in a laboratory on Science Island in Hefei, Anhui Province, Qi Ziping, a researcher at the Institute of Health and Medical Technology of the Hefei Institute of Physical Sciences of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, was busy nervously.
According to the team leader, ** Song, they have developed a targeted drug for lymphoma in the early stage and are in clinical trials.
Few people know that the drug in development benefits from a large scientific device called the Steady-State Strong Magnetic Field.
This large scientific device, which is more than 6 meters high, is currently the world's highest-performance steady-state strong magnetic field that can support scientific research.
The steady-state strong magnetic field is an extreme experimental condition required for material science research, and in the strong magnetic field experimental environment, the properties of matter will be regulated, which is conducive to scientists to discover new phenomena and study new laws of matter, and provides a new way for the research of physics, chemistry, materials and biology.
The steady-state strong magnetic field large scientific device on Science Island created a field strength of 45 two years agoThe new world record of 220,000 gauss surpasses the world record of 450,000 gauss steady-state strong magnetic field that has been held abroad for 23 years.
NMR under a strong magnetic field is an essential tool for biological, medical, and brain science research. "NMR technology plays a very important role in analyzing the structure of drugs and screening drugs. Relying on the derivative results of large scientific devices, the team has made a number of progress in the research and development of new drugs for lymphoma, breast cancer, pancreatic cancer and other diseases.
It often takes decades or even longer for big science facilities to achieve their ultimate scientific goals. However, in the process of "reaching the top", the phased scientific research results produced can continuously give birth to new application technologies and incubate innovative products, which is vividly called taking the "opportunity" to lay "eggs".
In recent years, on Science Island, researchers have relied on superconducting magnets, power supplies, low temperatures and other technologies derived from the steady-state strong magnetic field large scientific device and the fully superconducting tokamak nuclear fusion large scientific device to achieve the transformation of achievements in many fields such as materials, plasma, and biomedicine: a large number of application products such as compact superconducting proton systems, terahertz security detectors, and innovative drugs have ......
As a new type of radiotherapy technology, proton ** is a new type of tumor method at the forefront of the world. With the help of the island's fully superconducting tokamak nuclear fusion large scientific device, researchers used the superconducting magnet technology and cryogenic technology derived from its construction process to successfully develop a domestic proton ** equipment with independent intellectual property rights in 2021.
We not only regard big science facilities as a scientific research platform, but also as an important source of new productivity. Liu Jianguo, president of the Hefei Institute of Physical Sciences of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, introduced that the Science Island has accumulated more than 2,000 authorized invention patents, a total of more than 1.1 billion yuan in the transfer and transformation of scientific and technological achievements, and more than 300 incubated enterprises.
The flower of science and technology "bears "industrial fruits". This small island in the name of science is a "trend-setter" who embraces the industrial wave, and it is also a microcosm of the active implementation and transformation of scientific and technological achievements in various parts of China.
In 2023, 3,190 scientific and technological achievements of colleges and universities will be sorted out in the city, and 416 newly established enterprises will be promoted for the transformation of scientific and technological achievements.
Today, Anhui Province has a total of more than 1 high-tech enterprises90,000, the total number of technology-based small and medium-sized enterprises exceeds 270,000, 24 listed companies on the Science and Technology Innovation Board.
On the Science Island, the reporter touched the heat wave of scientific and technological achievements accelerating to people's lives, and felt the wave of China's science and technology rushing forward.
