The main aim of this project was to provide a basis for assessing the potential health effects of produced water (PW) on the marine pelagic zooplankton Calanus finmarchicus in the field. This report describes three experiments assessing the impact of reconstituted PW extracts on copepod PAH body...

Biofilms are single- or multi-species communities of bacteria that are enclosed in an extracellular matrix. These cells generally exhibit phenotypes that are significantly different from those of planktonic cells, yet detailed elucidation of the causality and the exact nature of this metabolic shift...
