Clusterization of water bound in frozen-dried bovine gametes containing organic additives

Clustering has been found of water-organic systems in frozen-dried bovine reproductive cells (BRCs). Various forms of water (weakly associated one and that forming clusters of different size and composition) are observed in the 1H NMR spectra as separated signals which can be caused by their localiz...

Description
Summary:Clustering has been found of water-organic systems in frozen-dried bovine reproductive cells (BRCs). Various forms of water (weakly associated one and that forming clusters of different size and composition) are observed in the 1H NMR spectra as separated signals which can be caused by their localization in spatially separated compartments formed by hydrophilic and hydrophobic structural elements of BRCs. An increase in concentration of intracellular water leads to an increase in the quantity of strongly bound water that suggest about changes in the topology of intracellular space.
