New trends in cryoenzymology: I.-Supercooled aqueous solutions.
A water in oil emulsion technique is proposed to investigate enzyme catalyzed reactions at sub-zero temperatures in the supercooled liquid state to avoid some reversible effects of the usual cosolvents on kinetics. Some results are listed: potentialities and technical problems of the procedure are discussed.
