看到这个标题我想起来George M. Church ,他曾经吃过很久一段时间的LB(还有点别的)
我记得很早很早以前尝过一口,然后就吐掉了,都忘记啥味了(当时我只是忘记了培养基有没有加蔗糖,想试试能不能分辨出来)
不过LB我是觉得不怎么好闻,尤其是yeast extract的味道.
YPD培养基在养了yeast后闻起来不错,有浓郁的酒香味。

I read somewhere you lived off LB for a period. Is this true? How was it?

I've heard this same rumor from multiple sources... supposedly it wasn't just LB (bacterial growth medium) but also several vitamins he mixed in according to the recommended daily amounts. And supposedly his breath was terrible.
But now there are "meal replacement beverages" like Soylent so maybe Prof. Church was just ahead of his time, as always.

This started when I was a human 'guinea pig' at an MIT Nutrition department study in 1973 trying to ascertain the impact of leucine deficiency on human health. Leucine is essential and must be in a human diet. Probably not smart to put my brain at risk. Anyway, I was still on a similar diet (plus leucine) when I met my future wife in 1978, and we're still together. (This is the first I've heard of the breath issue :) |
