    (Oxford & IBH Publishing Co.Pvt.Ltd.,New Delhi, 1994) Meenakumari, B; Nair, N.Balakrishnan
    The role of slime film on macrofouling was studied by comparing the ratio of settlement of cyprids to young barnacles on panels with slime films and panels that had been sterilized. Settlement was greater on the panels with slime. The rate of settlement varied significantly during different months and different exposure periods. Similar patterns were found on the sterile as well as the panels with slime. The results were compared to similar observations and studies from different parts of the world.
