1. Construction Background
Due to the outbreak of the COVID-19 epidemic last year, all parts of the world are suffering from the disease, and we in China are also on full alert to fight against the disease. Just at the beginning of this year, a new local COVID-19 patient was diagnosed in Shijiazhuang, Hebei Province. The current epidemic situation in Hebei is severe. In response to the epidemic, Shijiazhuang, the capital of Hebei Province with a population of tens of millions, began to implement closed-loop control of all communities and launched nucleic acid testing for all employees. After Dongsheng Group learned of the shortage of construction workers due to the epidemic prevention situation, it immediately dispatched 171 construction workers from two construction sites and rushed to the construction site. Working day and night, the workers worked quickly to construct, transport and assemble it. It only took 10 hours to appear at the Hebei Stadium Tennis Hall, which was truly a miracle. At this point, in order to enhance the power of nucleic acid testing, the Huoyan Laboratory, a professional nucleic acid testing laboratory built in Shijiazhuang in the Hebei Gymnasium, was launched.
2. Construction History
Fire Eye Laboratory, named after the meaning of "Fire Eyes and Golden Eyes", uses advanced detection technology to detect the new coronavirus at the first time. Fire Eye Laboratory is designed to test through The volume is 10,000 servings per day and is operated by BGI. Huoyan laboratories have been put into use in 13 cities across the country. The Huoyan laboratory in Shijiazhuang is one of them. The daily throughput of new coronavirus nucleic acid testing has increased. After the global epidemic broke out, the Huoyan model became a Chinese model and was launched overseas, with preparations for establishment and operation in the United Arab Emirates, Brunei, Serbia and other places. , becoming a model laboratory for epidemic detection across the country.
3. Construction functions?
Shijiazhuang Huoyan Laboratory is a large-scale and standardized nucleic acid testing platform that can provide integrated pathogen detection solutions. The high-throughput air film "Fire Eye" laboratory is composed of a 12-chamber BGI "Fire Eye" laboratory (air film version) and a 3-chamber BGI-made quick-installation negative pressure rigid air film "Fire Eye". It can detect the highest number every day. The sample size reaches 1 million people. Compared with traditional laboratories, it only takes about 50 minutes to fill the air film cabin of the air film version laboratory with gas. The cabin adopts a modular layout, and the equipment is assembled directly after entering the site. The construction method is much faster than the traditional process. ?
The reason why Huoyan Laboratory’s maximum daily testing throughput can exceed one million is mainly due to the use of advanced equipment to replace part of the labor force.
Huoyan Laboratory is an integrated solution. In addition to viral nucleic acid detection technology, it can also have antibody detection and high-throughput sequencing technology used in conjunction with nucleic acid detection. It can not only screen samples for virus infection, but also effectively promote research on virus source tracing and monitoring possible mutations of the virus.
Take China’s miracle seriously, praise our country, and hope that the epidemic can be quickly controlled and spring comes.
