Differential scanning calorimetry and nanolitre osmometry were used to observe ice growth at temperatures within the hysteresis gap between the melting point and non-equilibrium freezing point (hysteresis freezing point) of solutions of the various sized antifreeze glycoproteins (AFGPs). The ice growth within the hysteresis gap is presumably due to both the expression of primary or near primary prism planes and also some growth at the basal plane. The binding of the AFGPs to the ice causes a particular ice crystal morphology. With the smaller AFGPs, substantial microscopic ice growth was observed in the form of a hexagonal bipyramids within the hysteresis gap.

We measure the nucleation temperature using this new apparatus in which a single sample is repeatedly cooled, nucleated and thawed. This is done for a series of tetrahydrofuran concentrations and in several different sample tubes since the nucleation is heterogeneous and so occurring on the tube wall. The measurements are also done at the same concentrations ...

It is distinct from Lumpy-jaw in cattle. Since Fox's original description in 1923 it now seems that there are at least two etiological agents, Nocardia species andBacteroides ruminicola varbrevis. These agents may act singly or synergistically. Laboratory methods are outlined to resolve this dilemma so that a rational approach

Strategies such as these might enhance screening and prevention programs but require validation. Testing the usefulness of low-cost prediction models in developing regions is the next logical step in carrying this concept forward.
