METHOD FOR INCREASING THERMAL HYSTERESIS ACTIVITY, METHOD FOR REDUCING THERMAL INACTIVATION OF THERMAL HYSTERESIS ACTIVITY, AND COMPOSITION FOR INCREASING THERMAL HYSTERESIS ACTIVITY

摘要

The present invention relates to a method of increasing the thermal hysteresis activity exhibited by a composition containing an antifreeze protein and water, wherein the method includes incorporating the antifreeze protein and any one or more substances selected from the following additive group A into the water. According to the present invention, the method of further increasing the thermal hysteresis activity inherently possessed by an antifreeze protein can be provided.;Additive group A: an organic acid, an organic acid salt, an inorganic salt, an amino acid, an amino acid salt, an ammonium salt, a sugar, a sugar alcohol, urea, guanidine hydrochloride, spermidine, spermine, and N,N-dimethylformamide.
