ANTIFOULING ACTIVITY OF BACTERIA ASSOCIATED WITH SOFT CORAL Sarcophyton sp. AGAINST MARINE BIOFILMFORMING BACTERIA [PDF]
, 2006 Marine bacteria associated with soft coral Sarcophyton sp collected from vicinity of Peucang island, Ujung Kulon, West Java, were successfully screened for antifouling activity against marine biofilm-forming bacteria isolated from the surrounding ...

Prevention of marine biofouling for ocean instruments:
JAMSTEC Report of Research and Development, 2009 現在, むつ研究所では, 海洋表層の二酸化炭素分圧の高密度観測を可能にする漂流型二酸化炭素分圧観測装置 (小型漂流ブイ) の開発を行なっている. 一般に, ブイなどを用いた中・長期の海洋観測では, 観測期間中に機器に生物付着が発生し, 装置の機能や能力を低下させる. 海洋では生物付着防止効果に優れた塗料の防汚剤として有機スズ (トリブチルスズ) が長く利用されてきたが, 海洋環境への負荷が明らかとなり, その使用が禁止された. 本報では, 防汚剤を使用せず塗膜表面物性を利用したシリコーン系防汚塗料が, 海洋観測機器にも利用出来るかを検討するため, 各種防汚塗料とともに防汚効果の比較試験を行なった.

Natural antifouling compound production by microbes associated with marine macroorganisms — A review
Electronic Journal of Biotechnology, 2016 In the marine environment, all hard surfaces including marine macroorganims are colonized by microorganisms mainly from the surrounding environment. The microorganisms associated with marine macroorganisms offer tremendous potential for exploitation of ...

Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.Abstract Methods using environmental nucleic acids have become highly effective for monitoring aquatic biodiversity, with an array of suitable use cases, including metrics for fisheries assessment. Traditional methods for assessing fish populations often rely on invasive techniques with limited spatial and temporal coverage.

Biofouling and its control for in situ lab-on-a-chip marine environmental sensors
, 2012 Biofouling is the process by which biological organisms attach to surfaces in an aqueous environment. This occurs on nearly all surfaces in all natural aquatic environments, and can cause problems with the functioning of scientific equipment exposed to ...

Holdfast adhesion in the kelp Alaria marginata: Cell wall polysaccharides and phenolics
Journal of Phycology, EarlyView.Abstract Adhesion is a critical process in the survival of seaweeds, especially in wave‐swept environments. Kelp (Laminariales) sporophytes secrete adhesives from specialized rhizoid cells to anchor themselves to the substrate and withstand immense forces applied by waves.

Restoration Ecology, EarlyView.Abstract Introduction Seagrass restoration efforts are being implemented globally to accelerate the slow natural recolonization success. Among the various existing methods, seed‐based approaches offer the greatest scalability for species like Zostera marina, yet these methods remain undeveloped for a number of sub‐tidal systems like the Baltic Sea ...
