Abstract

In the context of biopreservation, we study the influence of water, glycerol and trehalose on the ps-ns dynamics of lyzosyme using neutron scattering. Results indicate that the choice of bioprotectant depends on the storage temperature; glycerol is the most effective for low temperatures and trehalose for high temperatures.
