Marine Biofouling Communities of Manila South Harbor, Philippines

ASEAN Journal on Science and Technology for Development, 2018
An immersion experiment was conducted in the Manila South Harbor to document the development of sessile biofouling communities. Test panels were submerged below the sea surface in April 2012 for short- (one and three months) and long-term (one year ...

Comparative Assessment of Shell Structural, Mechanical, and Elemental Properties in Adult Acorn Barnacles

Diversity
Balanomorph (acorn) barnacles are found throughout the world’s coastal oceans, and their success is dependent on a hard, mineralized, outer shell. Although macro-scale morphology of barnacle shells has been studied extensively, relatively little is known

Cochliomycin A inhibits the larval settlement ofAmphibalanus amphitriteby activating the NO/cGMP pathway

Biofouling, 2016
Cochliomycin A is a compound with anti-barnacle settlement activity and low toxicity, but the molecular mechanism of the compound is unknown. Here, isobaric tags for the relative or absolute quantitation (iTRAQ) labeling proteomic method were applied to analyze changes in the proteome of Amphibalanus（=Balanus） amphitrite cyprids in response to ...

Coliform accumulation in Amphibalanus amphitrite (Darwin, 1854) (Cirripedia) and its use as an organic pollution bioindicator in the estuarine area of Recife, Pernambuco, Brazil

Brazilian Journal of Biology
Samples of water and barnacles Amphibalanus amphitrite were collected from Recife, Brazil, to assess if it accumulates total (TC) and thermotolerant coliforms (TTC) related with sewage pollution.

Assessing the Impacts of Ocean Acidification on Adhesion and Shell Formation in the Barnacle Amphibalanus amphitrite

Frontiers in Marine Science, 2018
Barnacles are dominant members of marine intertidal communities. Their success depends on firm attachment provided by their proteinaceous adhesive and protection imparted by their calcified shell plates.

Effects of polystyrene microplastics on larval development, settlement, and metamorphosis of the intertidal barnacle Amphibalanus amphitrite

Ecotoxicology and Environmental Safety, 2020
The effects of microplastic on mortality and sublethal responses on larval development of meroplankton are still largely unknown. Present study investigated the effects of four sizes of virgin spherical polystyrene microplastics (diameter 1.7, 6.8, 10.4, 19.0 μm) on naupliar (stage II-VI) and cypris larvae of barnacle Amphibalanus amphitrite at ...

Morphological Comparison of the Intertidal Barnacle Amphibalanus amphitrite from Different Mangrove Habitats of Central Java [PDF]

Barnacles are one of the sessile crustaceans where they live attached like parasites to an object or living thing. Amphibalanus amphitrite is one of the most widespread and studied barnacle species in tropical and subtropical waters, known for its ...

DOSE DEPENDENT EFFECTS OF SILVER NANOPARTICLES ON REPRODUCTION AND DEVELOPMENT OF DIFFERENT BIOLOGICAL MODELS

EQA, 2012
The aim of this study was to investigate the possible impact of silver nanoparticles (Ag-NPs) on reproduction and development of different model organisms, such as sea urchins, barnacles, brine shrimps and zebrafish.

Seawater carbonate chemistry and adhesion and shell formation of the Barnacle Amphibalanus amphitrite

, 2018
Barnacles are dominant members of marine intertidal communities. Their success depends on firm attachment provided by their proteinaceous adhesive and protection imparted by their calcified shell plates.

Evidence of histopathological appearances in representative fishes and invertebrates from Libong Island, Thailand

Veterinary Integrative Sciences
The seagrass beds at Libong Island, Thailand, are a complex ecological habitat supporting many marine organisms. Unfortunately, the seagrass area is being lost, possibly exerting adverse impacts on aquatic life, but comprehensive aquatic monitoring ...
