14. Studies of fish responses to the antifoulant medetomidine
Abstract : ABSTRACT Growth of marine organisms, fouling, on man-made constructions submerged in the water is regarded as a major problem. For vessels, fouling increases drag and thereby fuel consumption, wherefore antifouling paints are used. Traditionally, they contain toxic compounds, and several of these have unwanted effects in the environment. READ MORE
