Synchrotron X-Ray Visualisation of Ice Formation in Insects during Lethal and Non-Lethal Freezing
Although the biochemical correlates of freeze tolerance in insects are becoming well-known, the process of ice formation in vivo is subject to speculation. We used synchrotron x-rays to directly visualise real-time ice formation at 3.3 Hz in intact insects. We observed freezing in diapausing 3(rd) i...
