-     <td colspan="4"><br><p>After stimulation, <i>E.D.Frosti</i> will acquire its desired biological property, i.e. the expression of  <b> Ice Nucleation Protein (INP) to induce ice formation</b>, or the expression of a membrane-attached <b> Antifreeze Protein (AFP) to  stimulate ice melting</b>. Upon application in the environment at low temperatures, a cell death mechanism will kill off the cells, though the desired biological activity of the proteins on the membranes will remain. This mechanism  ensures that the bacteria cannot overgrow the environment. </p>
