In preparation for winter many insects enhance the supercooling capacity of their body fluids by 25ยฐC or more, thereby avoiding the lethal effects of tissue freezing. A primary factor limiting supercooling capacity is the presence of nucleating agents that catalyze ice formation at high subzero temp
