Cold hardiness and overwintering survival of the grain aphid Sitobion avenae in Northern England [PDF]
Laboratory maintained Sitobion avenae of all developmental stages had a mean inherent supercooling ability below -20°C. Acclimation alone, or in conjunction with starvation had no significant effect on supercooling.

The effects of cool dialysate on vital signs, adequacy and complications during hemodialysis
Background: Cooling the dialysate is an important factor that contributes to the hemodynamic stability in patients during hemodialysis. The aim of this study was to determine the effect of cool dialysate on vital signs, and the adequacy and common ...

Enhanced levels of cold shock proteins in Listeria monocytogenes LO28 upon exposure to low temperature and high hydrostatic pressure [PDF]
Listeria monocytogenes is a psychrotrophic food-borne pathogen that is problematic for the food industry because of its ubiquitous distribution in nature and its ability to grow at low temperatures and in the presence of high salt concentrations.

Clarifying life lost due to cold and heat: a new approach using annual time series. [PDF]
OBJECTIVE: To clarify whether deaths associated with hot and cold days are among the frail who would have died anyway in the next few weeks or months. DESIGN: Time series regression analysis of annual deaths in relation to annual summaries of cold and ...
