RECRYSTALIZATION INHIBITION ASSESSED BY SPLAT COOLING AND OPTICAL RECRYSTALOMETRY

摘要

Levels of recrystalization have been measured by two distinct techniques; a splat cooling assay and a new device, an optical recrystalometer, which measures the change in light transmittance through a frozen sample. Both techniques indicate the presence of recrystalization inhibitors in a grass extract and in other samples. The advantages of each method of measuring recrystalization are discussed.
