    For many years, scientists all over the world have been studying how to change the cooked eggs back to the original raw ones Recently, according to the monthly journal UCI news sponsored by the University of California, Irvine campus in the United States, the technology was finally successful under the joint research of the University of California, Irvine campus and Australian chemists If this technology is applied to cancer treatment and food production, the cost will be greatly reduced Gregory Weiss, Professor of chemistry and molecular biology at UCI, who conducted the research, explained as follows: "as written in the research report, our research is to separate complex proteins and restore them to their original state We are not interested in the changing process of eggs What we want to prove more than this is that this technology has infinite power " When cooking eggs, a transparent protein called lysozyme will turn white and coagulate due to heat and chemical reaction, and then generate a new structure Weiss used urea in this experiment He injected urea into the coagulated protein, then installed the vortex flow equipment to mechanically apply pressure, and the coagulated protein would melt again and return to the original liquid state " In fact, many researchers have been exploring the generation and reuse of precious molecular proteins In the research and development of pharmaceutical products, genetically modified proteins are specially processed to replace molecular proteins, but the cost is very high In addition, although egg protein molecules can be used in many fields, but because of its complex structure, how to make it artificially has been a big problem for researchers If the technology is applied, scientists think it will play a significant role in the pharmaceutical industry and protein production research Now, for example, in pharmaceutical companies, because proteins are rarely separated, they use expensive "hamster ovary cells" to make cancer antibodies Therefore, patients who need anti-cancer treatment will have to bear high cost of treatment But as long as this technology is used, it is possible to regenerate proteins from yeast and coliform bacteria, quickly and cheaply By simplifying the formation of proteins, it may be cheaper to treat cancer in the future The University of California, Irvine, has applied for a patent for the latest technology Enterprises with technical cooperation with the university are actively promoting technology introduction among industrial partners who show interest.
