- Аннотация: For more than a century there have been reports of living organisms in permafrost, some of which are claimed to be millions of years old. Interest in organisms surviving in extreme environments (extremophiles) has been stimulated recently by reliable evidence of bacterial growth in many quite different and unexpected situations. Such bacteria can have an abnormal longevity. This paper examines frozen ground as an environment for microorganisms and a comparison is made with the characteristics of those living in other extreme environments. It seems certain that some species of bacteria survive in permafrost for long periods of time - far in excess of their ‘normal’ life span. The characteristics of ‘permafrost’ bacteria are such that they present opportunities for biotechnical engineering of species so as to increase their effectivity in bioremediation of contaminated ground in cold regions.
