ABSTRACT:
A method for treating a biological organism in a medium, comprising heating the medium containing the organism by a temperature of at least about 2.degree. C. at a rate which exceeds a relaxation rate of a cellular membrane of that organism, under such time and temperature conditions which do not thermally denature a substantial portion of the biological proteins.
