Linking Water to the Bottom: eDNA Study of Benthic Invertebrates and Invasive Species in the Venice Lagoon

Environmental DNA, Volume 7, Issue 2, March/April 2025.
This study used environmental DNA (eDNA) metabarcoding of superficial water samples to assess benthic invertebrate biodiversity in the Venice Lagoon. Sampling from surface water revealed 80 taxonomic units, mostly benthic species, including several invasive ones, with significant spatial and seasonal variations in community composition.

Antibacterial Activity of Methanolic Extracts of Amphibalanus amphitrite

Journal of Pharmaceutical Research International
The emergence of antibiotic resistance has intensified the need for novel antimicrobial agents from marine sources. Barnacles (Balanus spp.), being sessile organisms, develop potent chemical defences against microbial colonization, making them promising candidates for marine bioprospecting.

Harnessing Extrinsic Dissipation to Enhance the Toughness of Composites and Composite Joints: A State‐of‐the‐Art Review of Recent Advances

Advanced Materials, Volume 36, Issue 51, December 19, 2024.
This review highlights how toughness of laminated structures can be manipulated by engineering heterogeneity and microstructure of interfaces, bond lines and substrates. These techniques favor dissipation‐enhancing mechanisms such as fragmentation, long‐range bridging and can only be described by innovative modeling approaches. Abstract Interfaces play

Disentangling eukaryotic biodiversity patterns from man‐made environments (port and marina) and nearby coral reefs in the Red Sea: A focus on the surveillance of non‐indigenous species

Environmental DNA, Volume 6, Issue 4, July–August 2024.
Our study focuses on the detection of invasive species across man‐made environments and natural habitats in the central Red Sea. Specifically, we conducted comprehensive DNA analyses using samples collected from two artificial sites, a bustling port and a marina, in comparison with two ecologically sensitive natural sites, coral reefs.

Non-selective feeding on microplastics in the acorn barnacle Amphibalanus amphitrite: the implications in assessing barnacles as global microplastics bioindicators

Frontiers in Marine Science
To combat the plastic problem in the marine environment, bioindicators are essential because they can provide insights into the extent and ecological impacts of plastic pollution.

Diversity of marine bacteria growing on leachates from virgin and weathered plastic: Insights into potential degraders

Environmental Microbiology Reports, Volume 16, Issue 3, June 2024.
Plastic degradation in the ocean leads to the release of chemical compounds that can be toxic to marine fauna. In this work, using a combination of BONCAT, CARD‐FISH, and 16S rRNA gene amplicon sequencing, we study the marine bacterial taxa that could potentially degrade such plastic leachates.
