Cryopreservation is an essential technology for long-term storage of organs, tissues, cells and other biological samples. During cryopreservation, antifreeze agents are commonly used to reduce the freezing point of the system and inhibit the formation of ice crystals (ice nucleation, ice growth, and ice crystal recrystallization), thereby avoiding damage to biological samples caused by uncontrolled ice formation at low temperature. However, due to the difficulty in obtaining microscopic details of the interaction between antifreeze agents and water/ice in experiment, the mechanism of antifreeze has not yet been clearly understood. The hydrogen-bonded structure of water is very sensitive to temperature changes. By combining temperature-dependent near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) and chemometric methods, the hydrogen-bonded structure of water in low-temperature environments and the interactions between antifreeze agents and water/ice crystals are studied. The antifreeze mechanisms are understood at the molecular level using spectral information of water that changes with temperature. The details of the interaction between antifreeze agents and water/ice crystals at the atomic level are investigated using molecular dynamics (MD) simulation, and the antifreeze mechanisms are revealed by combining spectroscopic experimental methods. This Account provides an overview of the research progress on the antifreeze mechanism of antifreeze agents, with a focus on the recent advances in the study of the interaction between antifreeze agents and water/ice crystals using temperature-dependent NIRS and MD simulations. Overall, the Account aims to provide new ideas for the study of antifreeze mechanisms and deepen our understanding of the molecular details of the antifreeze mechanism. Finally, the challenges and prospects of using NIRS to reveal the antifreeze mechanism of antifreeze agents are discussed and possible further improvements are proposed, such as developing more effective chemometric methods to extract the spectral information of water molecules with different hydrogen-bonded structures from the NIRS of water, introducing importance sampling technique specially designed for water icing into MD simulations to enhance the sampling efficiency, so that MD simulations can be used to explore the entire process of water freezing inhibition by antifreeze agents, deepening the understanding of the antifreeze mechanism.

Key words: near-infrared spectroscopy, chemometric method, molecular-dynamics simulation, antifreeze agents, mechanism of antifreeze
