• Diversity, distribution and roles of osmoprotective compounds accumulated in halophytes under abiotic stress. (2015, background): “Trehalose is listed as a prominent ingredient in cosmetics, apparently because it is reputed to inhibit the oxidation of certain fatty acids in vitro that might be related to body odour (Crowe, 2007).”
• The Response to Heat Shock and Oxidative Stress in Saccharomyces cerevisiae (2012, background): “The role of trehalose in heat shock survival has been extensively reviewed elsewhere, and the reader is directed to these sources for additional information (Singer and Lindquist 1998; Trott and Morano 2003; Crowe 2007).”
• Trehalose: A Key Organic Osmolyte Effectively Involved in Plant Abiotic Stress Tolerance (2018, background): “In the case of dehydration or freezing states, trehalose forms hydrogen bonding with surrounding macromolecules and membranes by replacing water molecules (Crowe 2007).”
