A liquid nitrogen quick-freezing preservation method for fresh bamboo shoots. The method includes performing a coating treatment on cuts of fresh bamboo shoots, which reduces the moisture loss through the cuts, slows down the degree of lignification of the bamboo shoots, mitigates color changes at the cuts, inhibits excessively fast reproduction of microorganisms at the cuts and prevents invasion of microorganisms from the cuts, so that a decrease in nutritional value is reduced, the deterioration of the appearance quality of the bamboo shoots is mitigated, and the nutritional value and commodity value of the bamboo shoots are maintained. The method further includes an intermittent ultrasonic treatment on the fresh bamboo shoots, so that coating substances form films on the surfaces of the cuts more easily, preventing the fresh bamboo shoots from being eroded by microorganisms and preventing nutrient substances from being decomposed and utilized by the microorganisms.

The invention relates to a method for preserving the fresh juice of citrus fruits or pomegranates following the conventional treatment of the fruit and corresponding extrusion or expression of same to obtain the juice. The method consists of: applying, prior to introducing the juice into a container, CO.sub.2 in the form of carbonic snow, which removes the oxygen content in the container; then introducing the juice continuously; subsequently adding, according to the characteristics of the juice, a dose of liquid nitrogen that allows the atmosphere of the headspace thereof to be corrected; and hermetically sealing the container, such that the absence of oxygen therein is ensured, preventing the product from oxidising and increasing the durability thereof, as long as said product is preserved at a final temperature between 1 and 4° C.

A novel method for freeze-related separations, involving the combination of water with a selected concentration of biogenic ice nucleation proteins, freezing the combination, and separating the ice, potentially via centrifugation or sublimation. In some instances, the freezing conditions and the concentration of the at least one biogenic ice nucleation protein are selected such that the aqueous solution, upon freezing, forms a lamellar ice crystal structure having at least one property selected from the group consisting of a solute inclusion volume at least 30% smaller than in the first material alone, a hydraulic diameter at least 30% larger than in the first material alone, an inclusion width that is less than 10% of a crystal dimension, a hydraulic diameter that is less more than 1.5 times that of an inclusion width, a deviation of crystal orientation angle in the transverse direction of less than 45 degrees, an ice crystal length in the transverse direction that is at least 10% larger than in the first material alone, and a length of the ice crystal structure in the longitudinal direction that is at least 10% larger than in the first material alone. The use of these structures result in a significant efficiency improvement and energy savings.
