The role of high-density and low-density amorphous ice on biomolecules at cryogenic temperatures: a case study with polyalanine
ORAL
Abstract
Experimental techniques, such as cryo-electron microscopy, require biological samples to be recovered at cryogenic temperatures (T ≈ 100 K) with water being in an amorphous ice state. However, (bulk) water can exist in two amorphous ices at P
