Bison were already in North America when the glaciers began to grow, and the ice separated their populations into northern and southern branches.
An aqueous slurry of <45 μm titanium powders was directionally solidified, resulting in a powder preform consisting of elongated, aligned dendrites of pure ice separated by interdendritic regions with high powder content.
Blood was collected into potassium EDTA tubes, placed on ice, separated within 15 minutes and stored at -80°C until analysis.
Flies were immediately frozen on dry ice, separated into groups of 30, and decapitated to prevent eye pigment interference.
