Fungi shipping

Tributyltin (TBT) is used as an anti-fouling compound to prevent the growth of microbes and fungi, and to prevent the attachment of barnacles and other organisms to ships hulls. TBT has been found toxic towards aquatic organisms, including fish and marine mammals, rapidly accumulating in them [296]. [Pg.219]

Although trace amounts of copper are essential for life, copper in large amounts is quite toxic copper salts are used to kill bacteria, fungi, and algae. For example, paints containing copper are used on ship hulls to prevent fouling by marine organisms. [Pg.964]
