Existing polyamide (PA) membrane synthesis protocols are underpinned by controlling
diffusion-dominant liquid-phase reactions that yield subpar spatial architectures and …

One of the greatest concerns in the subzero storage of cells, tissues, and organs is the ability
to control the nucleation or recrystallization of ice. In nature, evidence of these processes …

Cryopreservation of tissues and organs can bring transformative changes to medicine and
medical science. In the past decades, limited progress has been achieved, although …

Ice accretion in winter has been a serious threat to the security of people's lives and facility
operations. To prevent ice accretion, various materials have been developed in the past …

Cell-based therapy is a promising technology for intractable diseases and health care
applications, in which cryopreservation has become an essential procedure to realize the …

Most biological protein fibers exhibit extraordinary mechanical performance at room
temperatures but inferior freezing resistance. Maintaining fiber's high strength and …

We synthesized a series of [(l-Ala) x-co-(l-Thr succinate) y](PATs), which are analogous to
natural antifreezing glycoprotein with the structure of [l-Ala-l-Ala-l-Thr disaccharide] n, by …

Seawater desalination is believed to be the most promising solution to solve the current
crisis of global freshwater deficiency. The applications of nanoporous graphene filters and …

The control of ice recrystallization is very important in cryo-technological fields such as the
food industry, biopharmaceuticals, and cell storage. Ice recrystallization inhibition (IRI) …

Cell cryopreservation is of vital significance both for transporting and storing cells before
experimental/clinical use. Cryoprotectants (CPAs) are necessary additives in the preserving …
