Laboratory-Scale Isolation of Insect Antifreeze Protein for Cryobiology
Micromolar concentrations of hyperactive antifreeze proteins (AFPs) from insects can prevent aqueous solutions from freezing down to at least −6 °C. To explore cryopreservation of cells, tissues and organs at these temperatures without ice formation, we have developed a protocol t...
