Is the GM grape far away from us?

Is the GM grape far away from us?

Yesterday when I was reading a foreign wine blog, I read an article by the Associated Press reporter MARCUS KABEL, which published an article titled "Wine Researchers Utilize Biotechnology," which once again caused strong reactions. The domestic wine professional website also compiled this article. The general content is that scientists at the Grape Biotechnology Center at Missouri State University in the US hope to use genetic technology to improve wine grape varieties. The researchers at the center are currently identifying and diverting individual genes. It is these genes that make wild grapes cause Europe and The cultivars of the hybrid grape plague are resistant to fungal diseases, and most of the wines are made from European and hybrid grapes, and the work now done by the center is part of an international cooperation project called IGGP.

In fact, international research on genetically modified grapes has achieved phased results, but because genetically modified grapes are also genetically modified organisms (GMOs), it is also strongly opposed in Europe and the United States as other genetically modified products. France has tried to re The experiment of planting GM grapes began but it was met with resistance from all sides, especially the strong opposition of some major wine manufacturers. Nevertheless, the government still supports this work.

In fact, people are also happy about GM grapes: On the one hand, people hope to improve the health of vineyards by planting genetically modified grapes and reduce the amount of pesticides used to improve the quality of wine. On the other hand, wine producers are also worried that the cultivation of genetically modified grapes will bring adverse effects and potential dangers to individual vineyards and even the entire ecosystem.

Therefore, although the prospects of genetically modified grape varieties are promising, and they will eventually be put on the market, it will take more than a decade or even longer to achieve this process.

Graphite can be divided into natural graphite and Artificial Graphite, which as the name suggests is made of artificial graphite. Graphite is an allotrope of elemental carbon. The existence of carbon is varied, with crystalline elemental carbon such as diamond, graphite; with amorphous carbon such as coal; complex organic compounds such as animals and plants; carbonate such as marble and so on. Because graphite has many excellent properties, it has been widely used in metallurgy, machinery, monocrystalline polycrystalline solar, electrical, chemical, textile, mold, electronic semiconductor, defense, aviation, aerospace, medical, sports, automotive and other industrial sectors.



In the metallurgical industry, natural flake graphite can be used to produce refractory materials such as magnesia carbon bricks and aluminum carbon bricks because of its good oxidation resistance. Artificial graphite can be used as a steelmaking electrode, and electrodes made of natural graphite are difficult to use in the more demanding steelmaking electric furnaces.

In the mechanical industry, graphite materials are commonly used as wear and lubrication materials. Natural flake graphite lubricity is better, commonly used as lubricant additives. Corrosive medium transport equipment, extensive use of artificial graphite piston rings, seals and bearings, work without the need for lubricating oil. Natural graphite and polymer resin composite materials can also be used in these areas, but wear resistance as artificial graphite.

In the chemical industry, artificial graphite has the characteristics of corrosion resistance, good thermal conductivity and low permeability. In the chemical industry is widely used in the production of heat exchangers, reaction tanks, absorption towers, filters and other equipment. Natural graphite and polymer resin composite materials can also be used in these areas, but the thermal conductivity, corrosion resistance as artificial graphite.
