• Hull fouling is a risk factor for intercontinental species exchange in aquatic ecosystems (2007, background): “The Convention has already motivated a search for alternative anti-fouling coatings (Yebra et al. 2004), but many substitutes also are toxic (Karlsson and Eklund 2004), and justifiable concern exists about economic losses (e.”
• Hydrophilic and hydrophobic materials and their applications (2018, background): “It is desired to reduce or avoid or reverse biofouling using anti-fouling and fouling-release (Yebra, Kiil, and Dam-Johansen 2004).”
• Anticorrosive coatings: a review (2009, background): “Structures immersed in water are also subjected to biofouling.(24)”
• Microbial Biofouling: Unsolved Problems, Insufficient Approaches, and Possible Solutions (2011, background): “Among those, the review of Meseguer Yebra et al. (2004) is particularly interesting as it is dedicated to environmentally friendly antifouling coatings.”
• Early marine bacterial biofilm on a copper-based antifouling paint (2013, background): “After the ban of using TBT, copperbased AF paints have become the main biocide used in most AF coatings due to their effectiveness, efficiency and endurance (Yebra et al., 2004).”
• Natural antifouling compound production by microbes associated with marine macroorganisms: A review (2016, background): “After the ban of TBT containing antifoulants, copper paints are used as an alternative despite the higher toxicity of copper to the marine environment [15].”
