Efficacy of different antifouling treatments for seawater cooling systems [PDF]
In an industrial seawater cooling system, the effects of three different antifouling treatments, viz. sodium hypochlorite (NaClO), aliphatic amines (Mexel1432) and UV radiation, on the characteristics of the fouling formed were evaluated.

A Real-Time Antifouling Multivalent Aptamer Platform for Wash-Free Electrochemical Detection of Low-Abundance Biomarkers in Human Plasma. [PDF]
Detection of low‐abundance proteins at the point‐of‐care is key for early detection and real‐time monitoring. The clinical translation of such assays is hindered by biofouling, matrix variability, and signal instability. RT‐MagMAp assay overcomes these challenges and enables precise protein quantification in human plasma using a hierarchical assembly ...
