Biofouling Effects on the Response of a Wave Measurement Buoy in Deep Water [PDF]
The effects of biofouling on a wave measurement buoy are examined using concurrent data collected with two Datawell Waveriders at Ocean Station P: one heavily biofouled at the end of a 26-month deployment, the other newly deployed and clean.

Fungal infections: Pathogenesis, antifungals and alternate treatment approaches
Increasing incidence of fungal infections of recent times requires immediate intervention. Fungal infections are seldom construed at initial stages that intensify the severity of infections and complicate the treatment procedures. Fungal pathogens employ

Description of the biofouling phenomena affecting membranes by the boundary flux concept [PDF]
Membrane fouling, showing up with a significant reduction of process productivity and membrane lifetime, is one of the main issues in membrane technologies and has been successfully described by the boundary flux concept. Although the concept was applied
