Additives that are used to inhibit the growth of fungi, bacteria, marine organisms and similar living matter. 

Xylanases are synthesized by fungi, bacteria, marine algae, insects, seeds, etc. but the principal source of commercial xylanases is filamentous fungi. The fungi secrete xylanase into the extracellular medium along with several accessory xylanolytic...

For purposes of information one can compare these levels with those of plants (0.1 to 0.4%), mollusks (0.4%) and the human body (0.14%), but the highest levels are observed in marine algae (13% in Macrocytis pyrifera), and in the tissues of certain bacteria which can even contain elemental sulfur (25% in Beggiatoa Albea tissues). 

Other appHcations of firefly hioluminescence include measurement of the activity of bacteria in secondary sewage treatment activated sludge (296,297), detection of bacteria in clean rooms and operating rooms, measurement of bacteria in bottled foods, beverages (298), and pharmaceuticals (299), determination of the antimicrobial activity of potential dmgs (300), determination of the viabiHty of seeds (301), and measuring marine biomass concentrations as a function of ocean depth or geographical location (302). 

The presence of fungi and bacteria in water-base or water-contaminated lubricants such as machining fluids and marine diesel crank case lubricants may promote corrosion, but have not been shown to be harmful to man . ... 

Distribution of luminous bacteria. Luminous bacteria are widely distributed in the marine environment, and have been isolated from various sources, including seawater, the light organs and various other parts of marine luminous organisms, sometimes even from nonmarine sources as well. There are several major groups of luminous bacteria...
