The heft of biofouling One big challenge of making sensors that stay in the ocean for a while is keeping critters from growing all over them. It's called biofouling. Alex Derr and Ron Zaneveld of Wetlabs explain.
Carolina Chiellini presenta Biotecnologie per il biofouling Passione per la microbiologia: al Tour dei Mille Firenze Carolina Chiellini presenta Biotecnologie per il biofouling, lo studio e messa a punto di un protocollo standard per identificare e 'combattere' gli organismi responsabili del biofouling (o intasamento).
Nano Non-Stick Paint for Efficient Shipping Biofouling on ship hulls is responsible for an up to 40% higher fuel consumption of vessels. Now a new generation of non-toxic paint has been developed within the European research project Ambio. The secret of the new paint is a nano structure, caused by amphiphilic molecules.
