Investigating the Importance of Hydrophobicity and Hydration of Carbohydrates and Antifreeze Glycoprotein Analogues to Ice Recrystallization Inhibition Activity and Cryopreservation

Cryopreservation is a vitally important field of study, and although significant advances have been made in the last 60 years, many challenges still exist. The exact mechanisms by which injury occurs are still debated, and therefore the design of cryoprotectants is uniquely challenging. A key event...
