Grafting of niclosamide and salicylanilide onto hydrophilic polyurethane for the control of fungal and barnacle growth
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2018 at "Polymer Bulletin"
DOI: 10.1007/s00289-018-2481-0
Abstract: Grafting of niclosamide or salicylanilide onto polyurethane (PU) was executed to develop antifungal effectiveness and barnacle repelling capability in seawater compared with underivatized PU. The PU surface was simultaneously modified to improve the surface hydrophilicity… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.forsciint.2020.110526
Abstract: The estimation of the time since death (minimum Post Mortem Interval, minPMI) is an essential aspect of forensic investigations. This is particularly complex when a human body is found submerged, floating or beached in a… read more here.

DOI: 10.1111/gcb.16390
Abstract: Heatwave frequency and intensity will increase as climate change progresses. Intertidal sessile invertebrates, which often form thermally benign microhabitats for associated species, are vulnerable to thermal stress because they have minimal ability to behaviourally thermoregulate.… read more here.
