Marine Biofouling: Acorn Barnacles Secrete Phase‐Separating Fluid to Clear Surfaces Ahead of Cement Deposition (Adv. Sci. 6/2018)

Barnacles have long been admired, or hated, for the tenacity of their cement. In article number https://doi.org/10.1002/advs.201700762, Kenan P. Fears and co‐workers reveal that barnacles have also evolved a remarkable surface cleaning fluid that removes microorganisms ahead of cement deposition. Kn...

description Barnacles have long been admired, or hated, for the tenacity of their cement. In article number https://doi.org/10.1002/advs.201700762, Kenan P. Fears and co‐workers reveal that barnacles have also evolved a remarkable surface cleaning fluid that removes microorganisms ahead of cement deposition. Knowledge of these processes could enhance the efficiency of synthetic underwater adhesives and lead to novel environmentally benign antifouling technologies. [Image: see text]
