据英国《新科学家》杂志报道，泥炭是由泥炭藓等植物在封闭环境中经压实作用不完全分解而成的，具有很强的保鲜能力。人们曾在泥炭层里发现了保存完好、有6000年历史的面包和有1800年历史的桶装黄油。 对于泥炭的保鲜能力从何而来，科学界有不同的解释。挪威科学技术大学的科学 According to the British “New Scientist” magazine reported that peat is made of peat moss and other plants in the closed environment by the compaction of incomplete decomposition formed, with strong preservation ability. People have found in the peat layer well preserved, 6,000-year-old bread and 1800-year-old bottled butter. The scientific community has different interpretations of where peat preservation can come from. Science at Norwegian University of Science and Technology
