Elevated CO2 leads to altered micromechanical properties of the mineralized cuticle in blue and red king crabs
(National Shellfisheries Association, 2014)
Assessing the effect of salinity on barnacle adhesion and biomineralization
(National Shellfisheries Association, 2015)
Barnacles are dominant members of marine biofouling communities throughout much of the world’s oceans. The base of the
barnacle attaches to surfaces with secreted proteinaceous adhesives that bond with surfaces and cure. ...
Characterizing key proteins that contribute to barnacle adhesion
(National Shellfisheries Association, 2015)
Barnacles can tenaciously adhere to almost any surface. To stick to a surface, glues are released and form an adhesive bond
between the surface and the barnacle's base plate. The predomi-nantly proteinaceous glue is ...
Evaluating the effects of ocean acidification on the mechanics and structures of southern tanner crab mineralized tissue
(National Shellfisheries Association, 2015)
Increasing levels of atmospheric carbon dioxide have led to a reduction in the pH of ocean waters (i.e. ocean acidification, OA) and an associated drop in calcium carbonate saturation states. In many taxa, these changes ...
The effect of helium ion radiation on the material properties of bone
(Springer, 2021-06)
The effect of hydrophobic alkyl silane self-assembled monolayers on adult barnacle adhesion
(Marine Technology Society, 2017)
Although there exists a wide range of nonbiocidal and environmentally friendly surface coatings to reduce biofouling on marine structures, there is still not a fundamental understanding of barnacle adhesion upon reattachment. ...
