Ice Nucleating Macromolecules

Ice Nucleating Macromolecules is an academic construct referring to large biological or synthetic molecules that serve as potent ice nucleation sites by enabling water molecules to organize into ice crystals at relatively high subzero temperatures, thereby distinguishing them from smaller ice-nucleating entities through their polymeric or supramolecular architecture.
