Description

Different types of Gram-negative bacteria possess the ability to catalyze ice formation in temperatures ranging from -2 to -12??C [1, 2]. Most of the ice nucleating active (INA) bacteria are known to be found in plants [3] and animals [4, 5]. Other microorganisms with several genres of fungi [6] and lichens [7] are also reported to have the ability to induce formation.
