In conclusion, slightly dissolving versions of studied ecofriendly biocides could be replaced with copper based antifouling biocides.
📌 3 Key Takeaways
🎯
Objective & Hypothesis:There is a great need for developing of eco-friendly antifouling biocides since negative ecological effects have been proven for current antifouling biocides.
📊
Key Findings & Data:In the present study acute toxicities of potassium sorbate (KS), tannic acid (TA), copper(II) sulphatepentahydrate (CS), Caulerpa prolifera extract (CPE) were investigated on the survival of A.salina. $LC _{50}$ values were found for KS, TA, CS and CPE as 19.96 g/L, 155.30 g/L, 10.47 g/L and 20.40%, respectively.

Abstract
There is a great need for developing of eco-friendly antifouling biocides since negative ecological effects have been proven for current antifouling biocides. In the present study acute toxicities of potassium sorbate (KS), tannic acid (TA), copper(II) sulphatepentahydrate (CS), Caulerpa prolifera extract (CPE) were investigated on the survival of A.salina. $LC _{50}$ values were found for KS, TA, CS and CPE as 19.96 g/L, 155.30 g/L, 10.47 g/L and 20.40%, respectively. In order to investigate the antifouling performances, the biocides were immobilized into phytagel and submerged into sea for one month in inner bay of İzmir. In conclusion, slightly dissolving versions of studied ecofriendly biocides could be replaced with copper based antifouling biocides.
