    BBC News - Drugs in dirt: Scientists appeal for help


    "We would like some assistance in sampling soil from around the world. If this sounds interesting to you - sign up."

    They want to hear from people from all countries and are particularly keen to receive samples from unique, unexplored environments such as caves, islands, and hot springs.
    Such places, they say, could house the holy grail - compounds produced by soil bacteria that are entirely new to science.
    Researcher Dr Sean Brady told the BBC: "We are not after hundreds of thousands of samples. What we really want is a couple of thousand from some really unique places that could contain some really interesting stuff. So it's not really your garden soil we are after, although that will have plenty of bacteria in it too."
