Light-sheet microscopy for high-resolution imaging of Caudoeuraphia caudata (Pilsbry, 1916), a new record of acorn barnacle from Thailand’s coast and its application in taxonomic identification and micro-morphological studies [PDF]
Songklanakarin Journal of Science and Technology (SJST), 2021 The acorn barnacle (Cirripedia: Balanomorpha) is a sessile crustacean arthropod, distributing around the intertidal areas of tropical and temperate regions worldwide.

Adhesive proteins of stalked and acorn barnacles display homology with low sequence similarities. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2014 Barnacle adhesion underwater is an important phenomenon to understand for the prevention of biofouling and potential biotechnological innovations, yet so far, identifying what makes barnacle glue proteins 'sticky' has proved elusive.

Transcriptomic analysis of neuropeptides and peptide hormones in the barnacle Balanus amphitrite: evidence of roles in larval settlement. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2012 The barnacle Balanus amphitrite is a globally distributed marine crustacean and has been used as a model species for intertidal ecology and biofouling studies. Its life cycle consists of seven planktonic larval stages followed by a sessile juvenile/adult

Allergologia et Immunopathologia, 2002 the aim of the present study is to investigate the responsible mechanism of different adverse reactions suffered by five patients, aged between six and thirty years-old, after consumption of barnacle. The symptoms were angioedema, dyspnea, generalized urticaria, conjunctivitis and one of them suffered from anaphylactic reaction.

Barnacles and Biofouling [PDF]
Integrative and Comparative Biology, 2012 Biofouling, the attachment and growth of organisms on submerged, man-made surfaces, has plagued ship operators for at least 2500 years. Accumulation of biofouling, including barnacles and other sessile marine invertebrates, increases the frictional resistance of ships' hulls, resulting in an increase in power and in fuel consumption required to make ...

Geologica Carpathica, 2018 Acorn barnacles are sessile crustaceans common in shallow-water settings, both in modern oceans and in the Miocene geological record. Barnacle-rich facies occur from polar to equatorial latitudes, generally associated with shallow-water, high-energy ...

Marine Ecology, EarlyView., 2023 Abstract Plankton play a key role in marine food webs by producing and transferring organic matter and energy to higher trophic levels. To define the trophic structure and interactions within the planktonic communities in the Gulf of Naples, we determined carbon and nitrogen stable isotope ratios in particulate organic matter (POM, <20 μm ...

Wintering Barnacle Geese Exhibit an Increased Behavioural Drive for Sleep After Sleep Deprivation Without a Clear EEG-Based Sleep Rebound. [PDF]
J Sleep ResABSTRACT Sleep is essential for normal physiological functioning, and sleep deprivation is typically compensated by increasing subsequent sleep duration and/or intensity. However, a recent study showed that barnacle geese (Branta leucopsis) exhibit seasonal variation in sleep homeostasis, with full recovery of sleep after sleep deprivation in summer ...
