"It is hard to cross the mountains and can't stand the beautiful scenery behind the mountains."
As the most serious area that was once "bottled" by the neck, my country's life sciences once relied heavily on imports. In recent years, with scientific research investment and technological breakthroughs, more and more self-developed technologies have overcome many difficulties and gradually started to replace imports.
, which frequently caused heated discussions, "14 million per shot of imported rare disease life-extending injection", officially announced the start of domestic clinical practice in April this year, and promoted the implementation of domestic substitution; heart stent , which was once monopolized by imports of tens of thousands of yuan, had a substitute domestic substitution rate of up to 80%; CT scanning imaging equipment, which was almost completely occupied by imports, also achieved a 64% domestic production rate... Life Science Technology's "big domestic" wave is coming.
Now, after the above countries have achieved scientific results, another life science and technology has announced the completion of import substitution, and "China Intelligent Manufacturing" has won another battle.
1. The technology of the United States and Japan is monopolized, and life technology is in a "sky-high import dilemma"
It is reported that this life technology has been monopolized by the United States and Japan for a considerable period of time.
data shows that the core of this technology research is an important substance involved in the human energy cycle - coenzyme I. Early in this research field, three Nobel Prize winners were born. They found that this substance plays an important role in maintaining the body's physiological functions and regulating the aging-related symptoms.
In 2013, American scientist Senkolai made a key breakthrough in and found that supplementing precursor molecules can increase coenzyme I levels in the body. Subsequently, scientists such as the University of Washington, , and the University of Tokyo, conducted human clinical trials one after another, confirming that after the intervention of the precursor molecule, a number of aging physiological indicators such as hair, skin, skeletal muscle, , and , showed rejuvenation. Dozens of research results have been published in scientific research journals such as Nature and Cell.
Under the strong scientific research endorsement, American and Japanese scientists began to push the molecule out of the laboratory, and the purified molecular agents are widely used to enhance functions and regulate aging. In Japan, where the aging is severe, it has even received official support and promoted among the people.
However, due to the lack of related technologies, our country has been excluded. Around 2016, the "probiotic good" molecular agents imported by the United States and Japan began to flow into my country through cross-border e-commerce and other means; however, due to technology monopoly and scarce raw materials, they were marked as a sky-high price of RMB 60,000 per bottle.
It is reported that on Sigma Aldrich, the world's largest reagent website at that time, the cost of good probiotic molecules was as high as 23,000 yuan per gram, and it was out of stock for a long time. After the finished supplements flowed into my country, they were named "young pill" and "old enzymes"; was even fryed to a sky-high price of 100,000 yuan per bottle due to its scarcity, and was criticized as a "rich survival game".
2. Domestic self-developed technology has made efforts to break free from the "bottleneck"
Fortunately, the "sky-high import dilemma" of cutting-edge life technology has finally come to an end with Chinese scientists successfully achieving technological breakthroughs.
data shows that with years of deep cultivation in the field of biotechnology and unremitting scientific research, Chinese scientists have finally made key progress in the "good probiotic" molecular technology: the whole enzyme method technology has greatly reduced the difficulty of purifying the molecule, far exceeding the traditional "fermentation method" of the United States and Japan. The raw materials purified from have a cost of more than 99% lower than imported cliff-like.
The finished molecular agent that once kept ordinary people out of the sky-high price of tens of thousands of yuan was finally mass-produced in my country. It is reported that the domestic version of "probiotics is good", with a threshold of only three digits, and is called "real domestic and people-friendly technology". JD user portrait shows that the audience is mostly from the domestic group over 40 years old, with a demand for suppressing and prolonging life.
Ironically, because my country has made breakthroughs in this molecular technology and even overtaken foreign countries, Now, both the United States and Japan have begun to "extend their hands" to me, whether it is experimental raw materials or finished supplement raw materials.Senkolai, the original discoverer of the good core molecules of probiotics, also stated in interviews and the latest paper that he used Chinese molecular raw materials: "After receiving raw materials from dozens of suppliers around the world, only China's has passed the highest purity test."
3. Confidence in a great power: "China's intelligent manufacturing" has risen strongly
According to statistics from the consulting company Ipsos, as of 2021, the market share of Guocai Lifei Technology products has increased from 35% in 2010 to 63% today.
In fact, whether it is the gradual implementation of imported substitution of life technologies, such as heart stents, good probiotic molecular agents, sky-high injections for rare diseases, or in many other fields, "China Intelligent Manufacturing" is emerging with great momentum.
Huawei and other domestic technology companies have developed their own 5G technology and Kirin chip , etc., have begun to launch the banner of domestic technology around the world, and even shocked the US side. The domestic large aircraft C919, which has completely independent intellectual property rights in my country, has also completed all test flights recently, and will soon show the highlights of my country's aviation technology to the world... …
As the report "The Great China Intelligent Manufacturing" pointed out: "With the deep integration of new generation information technologies such as 5G and AI with the manufacturing industry, China's manufacturing industry has shifted from high-speed growth to high-quality development of ."
has reason to believe that 's "China Intelligent Manufacturing" that has overcome many difficulties will lead more Chinese technologies, patents and products to the forefront of the world in the future.
