Introduction: Fruits are perishable, thus it's crucial to have an efficient preservation technique that can increase storage time while keeping physical quality and nutritional attributes in order to avoid wastage. The majority of methods for long-term storage require refrigeration.
Methods: In this investigation, we assess the viability of isochoric freezing as a different technique of raspberry (Rubus idaeus L.
The phenomena of water freezing at constant volume, or isochoric, is becoming more and more fascinating. However, because the system is subjected to extremely high pressures, it is exceedingly challenging to investigate it visually. Fewer properties have been found visually up till now, but many have been found through other means.

This prototype is a preliminary version of a more advanced design. The device consists of a cooling bath operated by a mechanical vapor compression refrigeration unit and an isochoric chamber made of stainless steel.

It has been established that the thermodynamics of isochoric freezing is different from that of isobaric (constant pressure) freezing. This study provides researchers in the field experimental results for various compositions of cryoprotectants commonly used in isobaric cryopreservation, in terms of temperature-pressure-molar concentration correlation.

The goal of this study is to generate fundamental experimental data on the pressure temperature relation during the freezing of an isochoric system of aqueous solutions of two compounds, glucose and glycerol. Glucose and glycerol are commonly used as cryoprotectants in conventional isobaric (constant pressure) cryopreservation protocols.
