Compounds from Silicones Alter Enzyme Activity in Curing Barnacle Glue and Model Enzymes

BACKGROUND: Attachment strength of fouling organisms on silicone coatings is low. We hypothesized that low attachment strength on silicones is, in part, due to the interaction of surface available components with natural glues. Components could alter curing of glues through bulk changes or specifica...
