Oral tribology). One example is the use of ice nucleation proteins in water-based ice cream, causing smooth and milky texture, comparable to the high calorie milk-based ice cream. Various diatoms contain such proteins, and biomineralize their hydrated silica structures in saltwater at subzero temperatures. An intriguing example is the polar diatom Corethron [31]. Corethron is packed with tribologically interesting rigid parts in relative motion, such as a click-stop mechanism and chiral hooked spines, serving as inspiration for novel 3D MEMS.
