Effects of cryoprotectants on radiation-induced aggregation. (a) Dependence of the rate of increase I(0) on the concentration of glycerol. Curves from the top to bottom correspond to 0, 0.02, 0.04, 0.06, 0.08, 0.2, 0.5, 1.0, 1.5, 2.5 and 5.0% (w/w). (b) Dependence of critical dose on the concentrations of glycerol and ethylene glycol. Open and solid circles correspond to the plots for glycerol (148 Gy s−1) and ethylene glycol (148 Gy s−1), respectively. The critical dose of each data point was determined based on equation (7)[link]. (c) The apparent rate of the aggregation corresponding to the critical dose shown in (b). Beyond 1.0% (broken lines), the aggregation is negligible and principally no different from each other.
