Marine Biofouling and Fisheries [PDF]
, 1987 Marine biofouling occurs on the bottom of boats, fishing gear, nets and the surface of underwater construction materials, as well as on the surface of living and nonliving marine organisms. It causes great damage to marine and fisheries industries. This paper discusses some of the biology of marine biofouling organisms and the relationship between ...

Mini-review: Inhibition of biofouling by marine microorganisms
Biofouling, 2013Any natural or artificial substratum exposed to seawater is quickly fouled by marine microorganisms and later by macrofouling species. Microfouling organisms on the surface of a substratum form heterogenic biofilms, which are composed of multiple species of heterotrophic bacteria, cyanobacteria, diatoms, protozoa and fungi.

Exploring marine biofouling on anthropogenic litter in the Atlantic coastline of Morocco.
Marine Pollution Bulletin, 2023Today, the world is increasingly concerned about marine litter and its interaction with marine biodiversity. However, knowledge concerning the fouling organisms associated with marine litter is very limited in many of the world's marine environments.

Biofouling in photobioreactors for marine microalgae
Critical Reviews in Biotechnology, 2017The economic and/or energetic feasibility of processes based on using microalgae biomass requires an efficient cultivation system. In photobioreactors (PBRs), the adhesion of microalgae to the transparent PBR surfaces leads to biofouling and reduces the solar radiation penetrating the PBR.

Inhibition of biofouling by marine microorganisms and their metabolites
Biofouling, 2006Development of microbial biofilms and the recruitment of propagules on the surfaces of man-made structures in the marine environment cause serious problems for the navies and for marine industries around the world. Current antifouling technology is based on the application of toxic substances that can be harmful to the natural environment.

Biofouling (Print), 2022
Past studies of Ultraviolet-C (UV-C) radiation as a marine antifoulant have focused on repeated doses. However, single or very low frequency exposures of UV-C could create more plausible applications for certain marine structures.

Degradable polyurethane for marine anti-biofouling
Journal of Materials Chemistry B, 2013Degradable polyurethane (PU) with copolyester oligomer consisting of ε-caprolactone (CL) and glycolide (GA) as the soft segments has been prepared by a combination of ring-opening polymerization and condensation reaction. Enzymatic and hydrolytic degradation experiments demonstrate that the PU can degrade in seawater. Such a polyurethane exhibit a more
