Natural Gas to Offer Breakthrough in Suspended Animation?

Posted by ryuzaki0 on from the science-that-stinks dept.

Kingcanute writes "The BBC is reporting that American scientists are claiming that sewer gas may be successful at inducing suspended animation. The results were achieved using mice but further studies are needed" From the article: "The problem with hypothermia is it's not that easy to cool down the human body so if we can find another method to inhibit metabolism that would be very useful"
