[USS Charon] SD241102.17 Science Report - Lab request Chief Petty Officer Timothy Yin - Chief Chemist (npc)

Lab study request form:

 Name and rank: Chief Petty Officer Timothy Yin
Position: Chief Chemist
Department: Chemistry, Science

 

I.                    Pre Lab report

Purpose: Synthesis of Anti-Toxin for Gouranni Herb.  Now that the toxin has been identified by the biology team, the anti-toxin needs to be synthesized.  Biology team has come up with a known Klingon root which contains half the necessary anti-toxin required.  Team will utilize the a portion of the root from the botany lab and extract the anti-toxin.  The root itself is being examined by the ships chef for possible cooking potential.

Materials:  Klingon Wo'at Root sample, grinding bowl, 2 measuring beakers, heating element, pure water, extraction hose and extractor, and sampling syringe, additional Gouranni herb toxin extract and holo-cadaver test subject and  exhaust hood.

Method/Procedure: Anti-toxin will be extracted through heating methods after grinding the root to hasten extraction process.  Anti-toxin will then be reacted in holo-cadaver after toxin is administered to the brainless subject.  Results will be recorded for additional labs, remainder of toxin and anti-toxin will be stored for later use, and a partial sample of the anti-toxin extract will be refined for hypo-spray use then given to the medical staff.

Hypothesis of result: Anti- Toxin will significant reduce the death factor of Gouranni Herb in Humans.
