Temperature-metabolism relationships above and below the body fluid freezing point in the freeze-tolerant white worm, Enchytraeus albidus.

Enchytraeus albidus is a freeze-tolerant oligochaete with potential for long-term cryopreservation storage as live feed in aquaculture. In this study, we measured the metabolic rate (MR) of E. albidus across a range of temperatures (+20 to -14 °C) in…
