Type of article: Article
Summary
Low concentrations of the synthetic polymer polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) inhibit ice formation in water/cryoprotectant solutions. Low-molecular weight PVA copolymers containing vinyl acetate were particularly effective. PVA copolymers open up new horizons in the field of controlling ice during cryopreservation of biological systems.
