Summary

LOW TEMPERATURES INDUCE AGGREGATION OF PROTEINS IN ERYTHROCYTE MEMBRANES. APPARENT STRUCTURAL CHANGES IN MEMBRANE PROTEINS ASSOCIATED WITH FREEZING MAY BE PREVENTED BY USING CRYOPROTECTANTS, GLYCEROL OR 1,2-PROPANEDIOL. OSMOTIC FACTORS APPEAREDTO PLAY A MAJOR ROLE IN THE INJURY TO MEMBRANE STRUCTURES DURING REMOVAL OF CRYOPROTECTANTS.
