Summary

This phenomenon is a decisive factor in changes in frozen or low-water-content products during storage. Two techniques were tested for the study of the diffusion of fluorescine in concentrated sucrose solutions. The coefficients of diffusion obtained through the two methods were similar between -10 and -20 deg C. The transparence of the samples must be allowed for.
