Ice age round worms frozen for 47,000 years, waking up, starting to eat as if nothing had happened

Cryogenic freezing is considered more scientific than current science, but now worms that have been trapped, frozen in the ice since the end of the Pleistocene – Ice Age – woke up from the longest nap and began looking for food and eating as if nothing had happened

Nematodes were found in a piece of Siberian permafrost years ago and have remained frozen since then. [19659004TheresearcherswhomadethelatestdiscoverydiscoveredthatbadoonastheythawedtheybegantomoveandlookforfoodTheteamofresearchersincludesPrincetonscientistsreportsRT

"We got the first donation showing the ability of multicellular organisms for long-term cryobia in Arctic permafrost deposits, "wrote the authors of the study. According to researchers, who work at the Institute of physicochemical and biological problems of soil science, in Moscow, large ice chuck contained about 300 round worms of which two females came back to life. The scientists involved in the study have declared this discovery as revolutionary.

Now more than 42,000 years old, the pair of roundworms is the oldest living organism on the planet.

"It is obvious that this ability suggests that the Pleistocene Nematodes possess certain adaptive mechanisms that may have scientific and practical importance for related scientific fields, such as cryomedicine, cryobiology and astrobiology", said the researchers.

The samples come from two regions of Yakutia, the coldest part of Russia. One of the two worms would be around 32,000 years old and would come from a squirrel burrow in the permafrost. The other was found about 47,000 years old and was found buried in the permafrost near the Alazeya River.

Permafrost sediments, the study indicates, contain a considerable diversity of unicellular organisms that survive hundreds of thousands of years in cryobiose. . Among them, several types of bacteria, including cyanobacteria, green algae, yeasts, naked amoebae, moss spores and higher plant seeds, to name a few, are able to germinate after cryopreservation. natural long-term. 19659005] However, this study claimed to identify the first viable multicellular organisms – soil nematodes, from permafrost deposits.

It may be noted that in 2000, scientists extracted spores of Bacillus bacteria hidden in salt crystals aged 250 million years and were able to bring them back to life.

If roundworms are able to wake up all the time, what about humans? At the moment, there is not really any way to freeze humans and bring them back to life, but that did not stop people from trying it.

At the end of 2016, it was learned that a 14-year-old girl She has obtained permission from the UK courts to keep her body in the hope that "no one is going to". it would be possible that one day there would be a cure for her illness and that she could be re-established, completely healed.

Shortly after her death, she was cryogenically frozen and now resides in a laboratory in the United States, according to a report by The Guardian.
