Acute Toxicity of Pyrithione Photodegradation Products to Some Marine Organisms

We evaluated the acute toxicity of zinc pyrithione and copper pyrithione, used as antifouling booster biocides, and their six main photodegradation products to three marine organisms, representing three trophic levels: an alga (Skeletonema costatum), a crustacean (Tigriopus japonicus), and a fish (Pagrus major). The acute toxicity values of the pyrithiones for S. costatum, T. japonicus, and P. ...

Population structure and identify of macrofouling organisms on marine structures in the coasts of Chabahar Bay

This study has been carried out in the coast of Chabahar Bay from March, 2013 to Febuary, 2014. We sampled macrofouling organisms in three stations. Overall, 40 species of macrofouling organisms were detected in which Barnacles, sponges, Bryozoans, echinoderms, Polychaetes and Gastropods were the major groups. The majority of biomass and highest density were observed in the first half of the se...

Antioxidant,Antiinflammatory and Antifungal Activity of Marine Sponge Subergargoria suberosa-Derived Natural Products

Chemical examination of the ethanol extract of the Indian ocean gorgonian coral Subergorgia suberosa resulted in isolation and identification of revealed compound 1 to be subergorgic acid 1 and a two bio-active analogues 2 and 7 were synthesized by the NaBH4 reduction of compound 1. The present investigation aimed to carry out invitro understanding the antioxidant,anti-inflammatory and antifung...
