We have developed a temperature controlled specimen stage on the existing jet-freezing apparatus, in order to quench samples from elevated temperatures up to 330 K. We have shown that the phase transition both from the liquid-crystalline to solid phase for pure phosphatidylcholines and from hexagonal II to lamellar phase for phosphatidylethanolamine/4% egg phosphatidic acid is prevented. Moreover, cooling rates exceeding 10,000 K s-1 were recorded indicative of ultra-rapid freezing capacity. Cryoprotectants can be omitted, since phase separation due to ice crystal growth does not occur.
我们在现有的喷射冷冻设备上开发了一个温度可控的样品台,以便将样品从高达330 K的高温快速冷却。我们已经证明,纯磷脂酰胆碱从液晶相到固相的相变以及磷脂酰乙醇胺/4% 鸡蛋磷脂酸从六方II相到层状相的相变都得到了抑制。此外,记录到的冷却速率超过10,000 K s-1,表明具有超快速冷冻能力。由于不会发生冰晶生长导致的相分离,因此可以省略冷冻保护剂。
