“…Since the existence of the native-like secondary structure was revealed, many researchers have developed mild solubilisation methods ( Chura-Chambi et al., 2019 ; Datta et al., 2013 ; Patra et al., 2000 ; Singh et al., 2008 , 2012 ). It is assumed that by retaining the native-like secondary structure, it will be easier to fold the protein into its native form, leading to increased protein recovery from the IBs ( Yon et al., 2018 ). In this study, we utilised a single freeze-thawing process as described by Qi et al.…”
