Summary

CRYOMICROSCOPY AND DIFFERENTIAL SCANNING CALORIMETRY WERE USED TO CHARACTERIZE THE INCIDENCE OF INTRACELLULAR ICE FORMATION IN 12-TO 13-HOURS-OLD EMBRYOS OF DROSOPHILA MELANOGASTER (OREGON-R STRAIN P2), AS INFLUENCED BY THE STATE OF THE EGGCASE, THE COMPOSITION OF THE SUSPENDING MEDIUM, AND THE COOLING RATE. COOLING RATES OF 2 K/MINUTE OR GREATER RESULTED IN A 100% INCIDENCE OF INTRACELLULAR ICE FORMATION IN PERMEABILIZED EGGS SUSPENDED IN ISOTONIC SALINE.
