Freeze-dry
\Freeze"-dry`\ (fr[=e]z"-dr[imac]`), v. t. [imp. & p.
p.
Freeze-dried; p. pr. & vb. n.
Freeze-drying.]
to remove the moisture from (e.g. food) by first freezing and
then subjecting to a high vacuum; -- used as a mild method
for drying foods or chemicals while causing little
decomposition, in contrast to heat-drying.
Note: This is a relatively gently drying process used to
preserve food or sensitive biological materials. For
biochemical materials, the term
{lyophilize} is often
used.
