I-Trehalose yi-metabolite yoxinzelelo eqhelekileyo enokuthi yenze ifilimu ekhuselayo ekhethekileyo kumphezulu weeseli phantsi kweemeko ezinzima zokusingqongileyo ezifana nobushushu obuphezulu, ukuphakama okuphezulu, uxinzelelo oluphezulu lwe-osmotic, kunye nokuphelelwa ngamanzi emzimbeni, ukukhusela ngokufanelekileyo ukwakhiwa kwe-biomolecules emonakalweni kunye nokugcina iinkqubo zobomi kunye neempawu zebhayoloji zezinto eziphilayo.
