More Information
Summary:The present invention relates to a biocidal composition and a method for eliminating invasive corals of the genus Tubastraea (sun coral) in a marine environment, using polymeric gels for in situ application to cover the surface of bioscaling, which act through a suffocation mechanism and/or poisoning through the administration of chemical biocides, with maximum lethality after 72 hours of up to 94%, for a single application.
