Vitrification Technique – New Possibilities for Male Gamete Low-Temperature Storage

The method is cheap and quick. Due to lowering the temperature of solution's glass transition the permeable cryoprotectants prevents the actual freezing of solution and allows to maintain its some flexibility in a glassy phase. Vitrification without permeable cryoprotectants allows to avoid the cryoprotectants toxicity and osmotic stress; the damage of plasmatic and mitochondrial membrane durin...

Relaxation calorimetry technique for measuring low temperature specific heat

A rudimentary calorimeter was constructed to measure the temperature dependence of the specific heat of a 10 m thick ~0.62 mg! copolymer film of vinylidene fluoride and trifluoroethylene in the previously unexplored vicinity of 6 K. The data were processed with the algorithm developed by Hwang et al. @Rev. Sci. Instrum. 68, 94 ~1997!# as modified for our configuration in which a Cernox thermome...

postharvest application of chitosan and low temperature storage affect respiration rate and quality of plum fruits

application of edible coating as a way of prolonging the shelf-life of perishable fruits and vegetables is promising. two plum cultivars (stanley and giant) were treated with 1% chitosan and then stored at 0-1oc and relative humidity of 90±5% for 40 days. changes in weight loss, respiration rate, fruit firmness, soluble solid content, titrable acidity, ph, ascorbic acid as well as decay rate we...
