Cryopreservation of cells and biologics underpins all biomedical research from routine
sample storage to emerging cell-based therapies, as well as ensuring cell banks provide …

A variety of chemicals are used in various stages of oil exploitation to ensure the normal
progress of exploitation and improve the efficiency of oil recovery. However, most of the …

Although freezing has been used to delay the deterioration of product quality and extend its
shelf life, the formation of ice crystals inevitably destroys product quality. This …

Exploring a novel natural cryoprotectant and understanding its antifreeze mechanism allows
the rational design of future sustainable antifreeze analogues. In this study, various …

It is now established that crystalline cellulose is held together not just by hydrogen bonding,
but also by dispersion forces and by electrostatic attraction modulated by stereoelectronic …

Background Freezing-induced damages on seafood are pervasive problems that result from
physical and biochemical changes during the freezing process. The formation of ice crystals …

Ice binding proteins modulate ice nucleation/growth and have huge (bio) technological
potential. There are few synthetic materials that reproduce their function, and rational design …

An oleogel-in-water Pickering emulsion was prepared and characterized. Soybean oil was
structured with beeswax (BW) in making the oleogel. Then the oleogel was stabilized with …

By natural selection, organisms evolve different solutions to cope with extremely cold
weather. The emergence of an antifreeze protein gene is one of the most momentous …

This study aimed to investigate the inhibition effects of tamarind seed polysaccharide (TSP)
on ice recrystallization and to figure out its possible molecular weight-dependent effects …
