Reaction of Tardigrades (Hypsibius) to Physical and Chemical Extremes
<p>The process of cryptobiosis is characterized by a complete state of body water dehydration and undetectable metabolic activity, which allows tardigrades {Hypsibius) to escape environmental stress when conditions become unfavorable. In our research, Hypsibius was tested in a laboratory under pH …

Pharmaceutical applications and crystal structures of trehalose and its derivatives.
… and animals utilise trehalose to facilitate cryptobiosis (life without water), actively synthesising and storing increased amounts in response to water, cold or heat stress. Preformulation profiling of trehalose has been performed, with consideration to solubility, flowability, spray-drying, …

Molecular analysis of the responses of Caenorhabditis elegans (Bristol N2), Panagrolaimus rigidus (AF36) and Panagrolaimus sp. (PS 1579) (Nematoda) to water stress
This work provides a comparative and genetic analysis of the responses to water stress in desiccation-tolerant and desiccation-sensitive nematodes. Caenorhabditis elegans, a model organism for the study of development, aging, and cell biology was shown to be a desiccation-sensitive organism that …
