Booster biocides and microfouling

Biofouling, 2010
Antifouling (AF) paints are used to prevent the attachment of living organisms to the submerged surfaces of ships, boats and aquatic structures, usually by the release of biocides. Apart from copper, organic booster biocides are the main active components in AF paints, but their use can have a negative impact on the marine environment.

Booster stations are fluid systems consisting of interconnected components such as pumps, pipes, valves and fittings. One of their main applications is to supply whole buildings or higher floors with drinking water if the supply pressure of the water company is not high enough to guarantee a continuous supply for all consumers.

On the existence of booster types

Proceedings 41st Annual Symposium on Foundations of Computer Science, 2002
A data type's consensus number measures its power in asynchronous concurrent models of computation. We characterize the circumstances under which types of high consensus number can be constructed from types with lower consensus numbers, a process called boosting. In settings where boosting is impossible, we can reason about the synchronization power of

Tetanus Toxoid Boosters

JAMA: The Journal of the American Medical Association, 1978
To the Editor.— I would like to respond to the question regarding the Arthus phenomenon following immunization with diphtheria-pertussin-tetanus (DPT) in the QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS section (238:2307, 1977). As noted by Zack Haddad, MD, the incidence of the Arthus-type response diminished when the interval between tetanus toxoid boosters increased.

Booster Policy for Adults

Biologicals, 1997
A little over 100 years ago the first vaccines were manufactured. Since this time of success no vaccines have been developed for the great scourges of our time i.e. Malaria, helminthic disease and HIV. The morbidity and mortality rates of pneumococcal infection, influenza, hepatitis B and lately diphtheria are high, while vaccination booster rates ...
