ABSTRACT:
Ice nucleating agents are introduced into or on invertebrates. They elevate the supercooling point of such invertebrates. Where such invertebrates are freeze-intolerant, they may be killed or made susceptible to freezing by subjecting them to temperatures at or below the elevated supercooling point. Food sources treated with ice nucleating agents can be used to introduce the agents effectively to the invertebrate.
