Journal ArticleDOI
The Antifouling and Fouling-Release Perfomance of Hyperbranched Fluoropolymer (HBFP)−Poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) Composite Coatings Evaluated by Adsorption of Biomacromolecules and the Green Fouling Alga Ulva
TL;DR: Of the heterogeneous cross-linked network coatings, the maximum resistances to protein, lipopolysaccharide, and Ulva zoospore adhesion, as well as the best Zoospore and sporeling release properties, were recorded for the HBFP-PEG45 coating, suggesting its unique applicability in fouling-resistance applications.
Journal ArticleDOI
Engineered antifouling microtopographies - effect of feature size, geometry, and roughness on settlement of zoospores of the green alga Ulva.
James F. Schumacher,Michelle L. Carman,Thomas G. Estes,Adam W. Feinberg,Leslie H. Wilson,Maureen E. Callow,James A. Callow,John A. Finlay,Anthony B. Brennan +8 more
TL;DR: The effect of feature size, geometry, and roughness on the settlement of zoospores of the ship fouling alga Ulva was evaluated using engineered microtopographies in polydimethylsiloxane elastomer.
Journal ArticleDOI
Anti-biofouling properties of comblike block copolymers with amphiphilic side chains.
Sitaraman Krishnan,Ramakrishnan Ayothi,Alexander Hexemer,John A. Finlay,Karen E. Sohn,Ruth Perry,Christopher K. Ober,Edward J. Kramer,Maureen E. Callow,James A. Callow,Daniel A. Fischer +10 more
TL;DR: Surfaces of novel block copolymers with amphiphilic side chains were studied for their ability to influence the adhesion of marine organisms and a mathematical model to extract depth-profile information from the normalized NEXAFS partial electron yield is developed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Species-specific engineered antifouling topographies: correlations between the settlement of algal zoospores and barnacle cyprids
James F. Schumacher,Nick Aldred,Maureen E. Callow,John A. Finlay,James A. Callow,Anthony S. Clare,Anthony B. Brennan +6 more
TL;DR: The results for spore settlement on first-generation hierarchical surfaces provide insight for the efficacious design of such structures when targeting multiple settling species.
Journal ArticleDOI
Comparison of the fouling release properties of hydrophobic fluorinated and hydrophilic PEGylated block copolymer surfaces: attachment strength of the diatom Navicula and the green alga Ulva.
Sitaraman Krishnan,Nick Wang,Christopher K. Ober,John A. Finlay,Maureen E. Callow,James A. Callow,Alexander Hexemer,Karen E. Sohn,Edward J. Kramer,Daniel A. Fischer +9 more
TL;DR: While Navicula cells released more easily from hydrophilic surfaces, Ulva sporelings showed higher removal fromHydrophobic surfaces, highlighting the importance of differences in cell-surface interactions in determining the strength of adhesion of cells to substrates.
