    Adhesion and removal of dormant, heat-activated, and germinated spores of three strains of Bacillus cereus1998Inngår i: Biofouling (Print), ISSN 0892-7014, E-ISSN 1029-2454, Vol. 13, nr 1, s. 51-67Artikkel i tidsskrift (Fagfellevurdert)
    Abstract [en]

    As the spores of Bacillus cereus are known to be very adhesive, the cleaning processes used to eliminate them are often inefficient. This study investigated how adhesion and removal of spores varied among strains of the species B. cereus. The adhesion and removal of spores during their life cycle were also examined. Spores of three different strains of B. cereus, viz. NVH 61, 1AM 1110 and NCTC 2599, were used. IAM 1110 spores adhered in greater numbers than spores of the other two strains and were the most hydrophobic; four times as many spores of this strain adhered than of the least adhesive spores, NCTC 2599. Spores of both these strains have an exosporium and appendages, but as the relative hydrophobicity varies, there are probably differences in their chemical composition. It was also found that dormant spores were 33-48% more adhesive than germinated spores. There were no obvious differences in adhesion between dormant and heat-activated spores. Up to 80% of the germinated spores could be removed from the surfaces tested. Dormant and heat-activated spores on the other hand were difficult to remove from the surfaces. When siliconized glass surfaces were coated with milk, germinated spores were still the easiest to remove but the difference was not as marked as before. Therefore, this work suggests that cleaning processes should take into consideration factors that boost spore germination in order to improve the cleaning.

    Antifouling activity of portimine, select semisynthetic analogues, and other microalga-derived spirocyclic imines2018Inngår i: Biofouling (Print), ISSN 0892-7014, E-ISSN 1029-2454, Vol. 34, nr 8, s. 950-961Artikkel i tidsskrift (Fagfellevurdert)
    Abstract [en]

    A range of natural products from marine invertebrates, bacteria and fungi have been assessed as leads for nature-inspired antifouling (AF) biocides, but little attention has been paid to microalgal-derived compounds. This study assessed the AF activity of the spirocyclic imine portimine (1), which is produced by the benthic mat-forming dinoflagellate Vulcanodinium rugosum. Portimine displayed potent AF activity in a panel of four macrofouling bioassays (EC50 0.06–62.5 ng ml−1), and this activity was distinct from that of the related compounds gymnodimine-A (2), 13-desmethyl spirolide C (3), and pinnatoxin-F (4). The proposed mechanism of action for portimine is induction of apoptosis, based on the observation that portimine inhibited macrofouling organisms at developmental stages known to involve apoptotic processes. Semisynthetic modification of select portions of the portimine molecule was subsequently undertaken. Observed changes in bioactivity of the resulting semisynthetic analogues of portimine were consistent with portimine’s unprecedented 5-membered imine ring structure playing a central role in its AF activity.

    Affinity states of biocides determine bioavailability and release rates in marine paints2015Inngår i: Biofouling (Print), ISSN 0892-7014, E-ISSN 1029-2454, Vol. 31, nr 2, s. 201-210Artikkel i tidsskrift (Fagfellevurdert)
    Abstract [en]

    A challenge for the next generation marine antifouling (AF) paints is to deliver minimum amounts of biocides to the environment. The candidate AF compound medetomidine is here shown to be released at very low concentrations, ie ng ml(-1) day(-1). Moreover, the release rate of medetomidine differs substantially depending on the formulation of the paint, while inhibition of barnacle settlement is independent of release to the ambient water, ie the paint with the lowest release rate was the most effective in impeding barnacle colonisation. This highlights the critical role of chemical interactions between biocide, paint carrier and the solid/aqueous interface for release rate and AF performance. The results are discussed in the light of differential affinity states of the biocide, predicting AF activity in terms of a high surface affinity and preserved bioavailability. This may offer a general framework for the design of low-release paint systems using biocides for protection against biofouling on marine surfaces.

    Evaluation of natural resveratrol multimers as marine antifoulants2023Inngår i: Biofouling (Print), ISSN 0892-7014, E-ISSN 1029-2454Artikkel i tidsskrift (Fagfellevurdert)
    Abstract [en]

    In the current study we investigate the antifouling potential of three polyphenolic resveratrol multimers (–)-hopeaphenol, vaticanol B and vatalbinoside A, isolated from two species of Anisoptera found in the Papua New Guinean rainforest. The compounds were evaluated against the growth and settlement of eight marine microfoulers and against the settlement and metamorphosis of Amphibalanus improvisus barnacle cyprids. The two isomeric compounds (–)-hopeaphenol and vaticanol B displayed a high inhibitory potential against the cyprid larvae metamorphosis at 2.8 and 1.1 μM. (–)-Hopeaphenol was also shown to be a strong inhibitor of both microalgal and bacterial adhesion at submicromolar concentrations with low toxicity. Resveratrol displayed a lower antifouling activity compared to the multimers and had higher off target toxicity against MCR-5 fibroblasts. This study illustrates the potential of natural products as a valuable source for the discovery of novel antifouling leads with low toxicity.

    Salivary protein adsorption onto hydroxyapatite and SDS-mediated elution studied by in situ ellipsometry2001Inngår i: Biofouling (Print), ISSN 0892-7014, E-ISSN 1029-2454, Vol. 17, s. 173-187Artikkel i tidsskrift (Fagfellevurdert)
    Abstract [en]

    Whole unstimulated saliva from two donors was investigated both with respect to adsorption characteristics and SDS-induced elutability. Salivary protein adsorption onto hydroxyapatite (HA) discs was studied by means of in situ ellipsometry in the concentration range 0.1-20% saliva. The adsorbed amounts on HA were found to be similar to those on silica, but the rates of adsorption were lower. Protein adsorption was virtually unaffected by the presence of Na+, whereas Ca2+ induced nucleation of calcium phosphate at the surface, the deposition rate being influenced by the pellicle age but not by the presence of saliva in bulk solution. The SDS elutability of adsorbed pellicles was determined on HA as well as on silica surfaces. Desorption from both surfaces was found to occur in the same SDS concentration range, although a residual layer was observed on HA. The slight net positive charge and lower charge density of HA as compared to the strongly negatively charged silica, may, at least partly, account for this observation by causing a reduction in the repulsive force between protein-surfactant complexes and the surface. Interindividual differences, observed in the adsorption as well as elution experiments, are thought to relate to the compositional differences observed by SDS-PAGE

    Intraoral lubrication of PRP-1, statherin and mucin as studied by AFM2004Inngår i: Biofouling (Print), ISSN 0892-7014, E-ISSN 1029-2454, Vol. 20, s. 65-70Artikkel i tidsskrift (Fagfellevurdert)
    Abstract [en]

    The aim of this paper was to elucidate the mechanisms behind salivary lubrication with special emphasis on the lubricity of three pellicle key components (human acidic proline-rich protein 1 (PRP-1), human statherin and bovine submaxillary mucin (BSM)). The lubricating properties of the proteins have been assessed by means of colloidal probe atomic force microscopy, and are discussed in relation to their adsorption behavior. To various extent, the investigated proteins all showed a lubricating effect when adsorbed to silica surfaces. For comparable concentrations, PRP-1 was found to have a more pronounced lubricating effect than BSM, which in turn showed a higher lubricity than statherin. The relative lubricity is in accordance with previously reported relative adsorbed amounts of the three proteins, within the investigated concentration interval. We conclude that PRP-1 has the highest lubricating capacity as a pure fraction among the investigated preparations, and that the lubricating effect of PRP-1 as a pure fraction is notably large as compared to the lubricity of human whole saliva

    Lubricating properties of the initial salivary pellicle – an AFM study2003Inngår i: Biofouling (Print), ISSN 0892-7014, E-ISSN 1029-2454, Vol. 19, s. 365-369Artikkel i tidsskrift (Fagfellevurdert)
    Abstract [en]

    The role of saliva in the oral cavity is manifold; an important function is to serve as lubricant between hard (enamel) and soft (mucosal) tissues. Intraoral lubrication is of crucial importance in order to maintain functions such as deglutition, mastication and the faculty of speech. A large number of people suffer from impaired salivary functions, displaying symptoms such as 'dry mouth'. This results in a need for methods to assess the lubricating properties of both native saliva as well as potential artificial saliva formulations. Here we measure normal as well as lateral forces, acting between adsorbed salivary films, for the first time by means of colloidal probe atomic force microscopy. We find that the presence of salivary pellicles between hard surfaces reduces the friction coefficient by a factor of 20. This reduction of friction is consistent with the long-range purely repulsive nature of the normal forces acting between the salivary films. The lubricating mechanism is presumably based on a full separation of the sliding surfaces by the salivary films. The friction between salivary films has been investigated at normal loads that well cover the clinical jaw closing forces, and it can be concluded that the lubricating properties are maintained within this load interval. The present study indicates the usefulness of colloidal probe atomic force microscopy, which offers a direct and quantitative measure of the lubrication on a molecular level, in the study of biotribological phenomena. In particular, the results obtained here may have implications for the development of saliva substitutes

    Bacillus spores and moulding with TTC agar: A useful method for the assessment of food processing equipment cleanability1999Inngår i: Biofouling (Print), ISSN 0892-7014, E-ISSN 1029-2454, Vol. 14, nr 1, s. 15-24Artikkel i tidsskrift (Fagfellevurdert)
    Abstract [en]

    In the present work a powerful and practical method for the assessment of food processing equipment cleanability is described. Surfaces were soiled with Bacillus spores. After cleaning, surfaces were overlaid with agar containing a tetrazolium salt (TTC) which stained the growing colonies red. Stained colonies could be readily detected and counted. The poorer hygienically designed areas were easily observed and contamination levels could be defined. The TTC method was compared to other classical techniques such as contact plates, direct epifluorescence microscopy (DEM) and Shapton and Hindes (SH) agar. Recovery of bacteria using the TTC method was found to be a good complement to DEM and more accurate than contact plates and SH agar. Cleanability tests on closed equipment are also reported showing the utility of the TTC method.

    Unhindered copper uptake by glutaraldehyde-polyethyleneimine coatings in an artificial seawater model system with adsorbed swollen polysaccharides and competing ligand EDTA2017Inngår i: Biofouling (Print), ISSN 0892-7014, E-ISSN 1029-2454, Vol. 33, nr 2, s. 184-194Artikkel i tidsskrift (Fagfellevurdert)
    Abstract [en]

    Shortly after a surface is submerged in the sea, a conditioning film is generally formed by adsorption of organic molecules, such as polysaccharides. This could affect transport of molecules and ions between the seawater and the surface. An artificial seawater model system was developed to understand how adsorbed polysaccharides impact copper binding by glutaraldehyde-crosslinked polyethyleneimine coatings. Coating performance was also determined when competed against copper-chelating EDTA. Polysaccharide adsorption and copper binding and distribution were investigated using advanced analytical techniques, including depth-resolved time-of-flight secondary ion mass spectroscopy, grazing incidence X-ray absorption near-edge spectroscopy, quartz crystal microbalance with dissipation monitoring and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. In artificial seawater, the polysaccharides adsorbed in a swollen state that copper readily penetrated and the glutaraldehyde-polyethyleneimine coatings outcompeted EDTA for copper binding. Furthermore, the depth distribution of copper species was determined with nanometre precision. The results are highly relevant for copper-binding and copper-releasing materials in seawater.

    Copper release rate needed to inhibit fouling on the west coast of Sweden and control of copper release using zinc oxide2018Inngår i: Biofouling (Print), ISSN 0892-7014, E-ISSN 1029-2454, Vol. 34, nr 4, s. 453-Artikkel i tidsskrift (Fagfellevurdert)
    Abstract [en]

    How zinc oxide influences copper release has been tested and the lowest release rate of copper from various combinations of copper and zinc in a paint matrix evaluated, whilst still deterring macrofouling, including barnacles and bryozoans. Copper (I) oxide was added to a generic AF paint in 0, 8.5, 11.7 or 16.3 wt% copper oxide in combination with 0, 10 or 20 wt% zinc oxide and applied on PMMA panels. The results show that zinc influences the release rate of copper. When 10 and 20 wt% zinc was added, the total amount of copper released significantly increased by on average 32 and 47% respectively. All treatments that included copper were successful in deterring macrofouling, including the treatment with the lowest average Cu release rate, ie 4.68 μg cm−2 day−1.

    Identification of key factors in Accelerated Low Water Corrosion through experimental simulation of tidal conditions: Influence of stimulated indigenous microbiota2014Inngår i: Biofouling (Print), ISSN 0892-7014, E-ISSN 1029-2454, Vol. 30, nr 3, s. 281-297Artikkel i tidsskrift (Fagfellevurdert)
    Abstract [en]

    Biotic and abiotic factors favoring Accelerated Low Water Corrosion (ALWC) on harbor steel structures remain unclear warranting their study under controlled experimental tidal conditions. Initial stimulation of marine microbial consortia by a pulse of organic matter resulted in localized corrosion and the highest corrosion rates (up to 12-times higher than non-stimulated conditions) in the low water zone, persisting after nine months exposure to natural seawater. Correlations between corrosion severity and the abundance and composition of metabolically active sulfate-reducing bacteria (SRB) indicated the importance and persistence of specific bacterial populations in accelerated corrosion. One phylotype related to the electrogenic SRB Desulfopila corrodens appeared as the major causative agent of the accelerated corrosion. The similarity of bacterial populations related to sulfur and iron cycles, mineral and tuberculation with those identified in ALWC support the relevance of experimental simulation of tidal conditions in the management of steel corrosion exposed to harbor environments.

    A new flow-through bioassay for testing low-emission antifouling coatings2017Inngår i: Biofouling (Print), ISSN 0892-7014, E-ISSN 1029-2454, Vol. 33, nr 8, s. 613-623Artikkel i tidsskrift (Fagfellevurdert)
    Abstract [en]

    Current antifouling (AF) technologies are based on the continuous release of biocides into the water, and consequently discharge into the environment. Major efforts to develop more environmentally friendly coatings require efficient testing in laboratory assays, followed by field studies. Barnacles are important fouling organisms worldwide, increasing hydrodynamic drag on ships and damaging coatings on underwater surfaces, and thus are extensively used as models in AF research, mostly in static, laboratory-based systems. Reliable flow-through test assays for the screening of biocide-containing AF paints, however, are rare. Herein, a flow-through bioassay was developed to screen for diverse low-release biocide paints, and to evaluate their effects on pre- and post-settlement traits in barnacles. The assay distinguishes between the effects from direct surface contact and bulk-water effects, which are crucial when developing low-emission AF coatings. This flow-through bioassay adds a new tool for rapid laboratory-based first-stage screening of candidate compounds and novel AF formulations.

    The impact of coating hardness on the anti-barnacle efficacy of an embedded antifouling biocide2013Inngår i: Biofouling (Print), ISSN 0892-7014, E-ISSN 1029-2454, Vol. 29, nr 7, s. 763-773Artikkel i tidsskrift (Fagfellevurdert)
    Abstract [en]

    The efficacy of antifouling coatings designed to minimise the release of biocide, either by embedded (non-covalent) or tethered (covalently bonded) biocides, relies on sufficient bioavailability of the active compound upon contact between the organism and the coating. This investigation is focused on whether coating hardness affects the efficacy of embedded coating systems. Two experimental, non-eroding and waterborne latex paint formulations composed mainly of polystyrene (PS) or polyvinyl versatate (PV) were chosen for their difference in mechanical properties measured in terms of Buchholz indentation resistance. Ivermectin was added to both formulations to a final concentration of 0.1% (w/v) and the steady state release rate was measured according to ISO 15181 at between 34 and 70 ng cm-2 day-1 for both formulations. Field trials conducted over 3 months showed significant differences in anti-barnacle efficacy between the formulations despite their similar release profiles. The softer PV coating showed complete anti-barnacle efficacy, ie no barnacles were detected, while the harder PS coating showed no efficacy against barnacle colonisation during the same time period. The results indicate a new antifouling strategy whereby a route of intoxication is triggered by the organism itself upon interaction with the coating and its embedded biocide. This finding opens new possibilities in controlling macrofouling by low emission antifouling coatings.

    Evaluation of cationic micropeptides derived from the innate immune system as inhibitors of marine biofouling2015Inngår i: Biofouling (Print), ISSN 0892-7014, E-ISSN 1029-2454, Vol. 31, nr 4, s. 393-403Artikkel i tidsskrift (Fagfellevurdert)
    Abstract [en]

    A series of 13 short synthetic amphiphilic cationic micropeptides, derived from the antimicrobial iron-binding innate defence protein lactoferrin, have been evaluated for their capacity to inhibit the marine fouling process. The whole biofouling process was studied and microfouling organisms such as marine bacteria and microalgae were included as well as the macrofouling barnacle Balanus improvisus. In total 19 different marine fouling organisms (18 microfoulers and one macrofouler) were included and both the adhesion and growth of the microfoulers were investigated. It was shown that the majority of the peptides inhibited barnacle cyprid settlement via a reversible nontoxic mechanism, with IC50 values as low as 0.5 μg ml−1. Six peptides inhibited adhesion and growth of microorganisms. Two of these were particularly active against the microfoulers with MIC-values ranging between 0.01 and 1 μg ml−1, which is comparable with the commercial reference antifoulant SeaNine.

    Probing the correlation between corrosion resistance and biofouling of thermally sprayed metallic substrata in the field2022Inngår i: Biofouling (Print), ISSN 0892-7014, E-ISSN 1029-2454, Vol. 38, nr 2, s. 147-161Artikkel i tidsskrift (Fagfellevurdert)
    Abstract [en]

    The correlation between inherent corrosion resistance and biofouling was investigated for five different metallic coatings. Steel panels thermally spray-coated with either aluminium, Monel, bronze or different aluminium alloys were tested in controlled salt mist conditions and electrochemical corrosion tests and subsequently employed at sea. The biofouling of the panels was monitored at different depths (5, 10 and 15 m) at periods ranging from 5 to 12 months. The main macrofouling organisms were quantified and analysed using permutational multivariate analysis. The results indicate a significant difference in fouling pressure between depths and the geographic sites used. No statistically significant link between high corrosion resistance and lower biofouling pressure was observed, indicating that the main marine macrofoulers settled equally well on corrosion resistant and corrosion prone metallic surfaces. This work sheds light on biofouling of thermally sprayed metallic substrata and it characterizes and compares biofouling assemblages from different biogeographical regions in Europe.
