  2. Cerebroside - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cerebroside

    The melting point of cerebrosides is considerably greater than physiological body temperature, >37.0 °C, giving glycolipids a paracrystalline, similar to liquid crystal structure. Cerebroside molecules are able form up to eight intermolecular hydrogen bonds between the polar hydrogens of the sugar and the hydroxy and amide groups of the ...

    The multiple crystals on the right were grown from a sugar cube, while the one on the left was grown from a single seed taken from the one on the right. Red dye was added to the sugar solution before growing the large crystal, but was insoluble with the sugar in its solid state, and all but small traces of the dye was forced to precipitate out ...

    The crystals are captured, stored, and sputter-coated with platinum at cryo-temperatures for imaging. The crystallization process appears to violate the second principle of thermodynamics. Whereas most processes that yield more orderly results are achieved by applying heat, crystals usually form at lower temperatures – especially by ...
