Osmotic shock is sometimes used to release cellular components, such as oil.
2.
Methods based on vortex mixing and osmotic shock cause death of many spores.
3.
Mechanisms for homogenization include grinding, mincing, chopping, pressure changes, osmotic shock, freeze-thawing, and ultra-sound.
4.
Mutations that affect upregulated under stressful conditions such as caloric restriction, heat shock, and osmotic shock.
5.
Calcium also acts as one of the primary regulators of osmotic stress ( Osmotic shock ).
6.
Osmotic shock is a sudden reduction in osmotic pressure, this can cause cells in a solution to rupture.
7.
Many organisms will come through this process unharmed as long as the osmotic shock does not last too long.
8.
These processes occur in response to stresses such as near-UV radiation, acid, temperature or osmotic shock, oxidative stress, and nutrient deprivation.
9.
Large numbers of starch granules can be emitted when the grain comes into contact with water through a process called osmotic shock.
10.
MscM is activated first at really low pressures followed by MscS, and finally MsCL being the last chance of survival during osmotic shock.
