In high-mountain habitats, summer frosts have negative consequences for plant fitness, therefore high-mountain plants have developed mechanisms of avoidance and tolerance to cope with freezing temperatures. Various ...

Plants can avoid freezing damage by preventing extracellular ice formation below the equilibrium freezing temperature (supercooling). We used Olea europaea cultivars to assess which traits contribute to avoid ice nucleation ...

Freeze concentration is a technique for solutions dewatering by cooling and freezing until the formation and separation of ice crystal of high purity. This technique avoid quality loss by thermal degradation of concentrated ...

A widespread practice in cryopreservation is to freeze spermatozoa by suspending the straws in stagnant nitrogen vapor over liquid nitrogen (N2V/LN2) for variable periods of time before plunging into liquid nitrogen (-196 ...

Influence of freezing temperature at –20 °C and −80 °C up to three months, and influence of storage at 4 °C up to fifteen days on carotenoid content and quality parameters in zeaxanthin-biofortified and commercial yellow ...

The elevated T-maze has been developed as an animal model of anxiety to generate both conditioned and unconditioned fears in the same rat. This study explores a version of the elevated T-maze fit for mice. Inhibitory ...

The milk freezing point is correlated with the soluble components and can be an indicator of fraudulent addition of water. The objective of this study was to investigate the interference of milk fat content upon the freezing ...
