First report on antibiotic resistance and antimicrobial activity of bacterial isolates from 13,000-year old cave ice core

Abstract Despite the unique physiology and metabolic pathways of microbiomes from cold environments providing key evolutionary insights and promising leads for discovering new bioactive compounds, cultivable bacteria entrapped in perennial ice from caves remained a largely unexplored life system. In...
