Frozen bacteria to replace antibiotics

Russian scientists see huge opportunities to replace antibiotics in poultry feed with 3.5 million year old bacteria from permafrost. The Bacillius F bacteria that was found in 2012 in the permafrost of the extremely cold Russian province of Siberia can make poultry feeding more efficient by improving the feed conversion rate. That can be concluded from the recent study by Russian scientists from the State Institute of Earth Cryosphere. Bacillius F has the potential to become the source for the p
