A data-driven approach to predicting the attachment density of biofouling organisms

, 2019
The attachment efficiency of biofouling organisms on solid surfaces depends on a variety of factors, including fouler species, nutrition abundance, flow rate, surface morphology and the stiffness of the solid to which attachment is to be made.

Method development for enhanced antifouling testing using novel natural products against marine biofilms

, 2012
Marine biofouling is the accumulation of organisms on underwater surfaces, causing increased ship hydrodynamic drag, which results in higher fuel consumption and decreased speed and range.

Deep-sea microbially influenced corrosion and biomineralization

Frontiers in Microbiology
Microbially influenced corrosion (MIC) and biomineralization are widely observed in marine, deep-sea, freshwater, and soil ecosystems. Recently, MIC and biomineralization associated with biofouling have significantly impacted marine resources, including ...

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 ...
