Ballast water: a review of the impact on the world public health
Provedor de dados: 80
Autores: Takahashi,CK; Lourenço,NGGS; Lopes,TF; Rall,VLM; Lopes,CAM.
Since the nineteenth century ships have been using ballast water (BW) for safety, stability, propulsion and maneuverability, as well as to redress loss of fuel weight and water consumption, and to maintain structural stress at acceptable levels. Ballast water has been spreading many non-native species around the globe, but little is known about the extent and potential significance of ship-mediated transfer of microorganisms. The global movements of ballast water by ships create a long-distance dispersal mechanism for human pathogens that may be important in the worldwide distribution of microorganisms, as well as for the epidemiology of waterborne diseases. Only a few studies have been carried out on this subject, most of them involving ballast water...

Ballast water research in France : Current status
Provedor de dados: 5
Autores: Masson, Daniel; Courtois, Olivier; Masson, Nadine; Guesdon, Stephane; Rocher, Gregory.
Due to important economic activities along the French oastline, the introduction of noxious organisms into French coastal waters, particularly by ship ballast water, may have serious consequences. After preliminary studies of ship movements in Charente Maritime, several samplings of ballast water and sediment were made. Samples were taken in five major harbours in France, along the Atlantic, Channel and Mediterranean coastlines. The main task of this first assessment was the research for exotic and possibly noxious phytoplancton. Clostridium and Vibrio bacteria were also tested for. The results are presented and discussed, with plans for further work.

Economic Incentives for Controlling Trade-Related Biological Invasions in the Great Lakes
Provedor de dados: 31
Autores: Lupi,   Frank; Horan,   Richard D.
Ballast water from commercial ships engaged in international trade has been implicated as the primary invasion pathway in over 60 percent of new introductions of invasive alien species (IAS) in the Great Lakes since 1960. Recent policies have recognized that IAS are a form of biological pollution and have become focused on preventing new introductions. Given that emissions-based incentives are infeasible for the case of biological emissions, we investigate the cost-effectiveness of various performance proxy-based and technology-based economic incentives to reduce the threat of new invasions of Ponto-Caspian species in the Great Lakes.

Enterobacteria identification and detection of diarrheagenic Escherichia coli in a Port Complex
Provedor de dados: 58
Autores: Costa,Clarissa Frota Macatrão; Monteiro Neto,Valério; Santos,Bruno Rafael de Carvalho; Costa,Bruno Rafael Rabelo; Azevedo,Alexandre; Serra,Josilene Lima; Mendes,Hermínio Benítez Rabello; Nascimento,Adenilde Ribeiro; Mendes,Mariana Bonfim Pinto; Kuppinger,Oliver.
The Port Complex of Maranhão (PCM) is the second largest port complex in Brazil, receiving ships with large volumes of ballast water. To evaluate the microbiological quality of its waters, physicochemical parameters (pH and salinity), the number of coliforms (thermotolerants and totals), and the presence of enterobacterias and diarrheagenic Escherichia coli strains were analyzed. In order to identify the presence of E. coli virulence genes target regions of the stx, elt, est, aggR, CVD432, ipaH and eae nucleotide sequences were studied. The presence of totals and thermotolerants coliforms were positive. Analyzing the salinity parameter, a significant increase in total coliforms was observed during the rainy season. We identified the species Escherichia...

Extension of the geographical distribution of some brachyuran and porcellanid decapods (Crustacea) to the coast of the State of São Paulo, Brazil
Provedor de dados: 104
Autores: Alves,Douglas F. R.; Cobo,Valter J.; Melo,Gustavo A. S. de.
Investigations of the distribution of marine organisms provide a better understanding of the patterns of distribution and dispersal of these animals. Extensions of the distributional limits of decapod crustaceans in Brazilian waters have been recorded steadily and gradually, but these limits still remain poorly understood. The present study provides information extending the known range of eight species of brachyuran crabs and one species of porcellanid crab. The animals were obtained by Scuba diving during a sampling program carried out near Vitória Island, Ilhabela, on the northeastern coast of the State of São Paulo (23º44'04"S-45º01'35"W) between February, 2004 and January, 2005. These new records extend the geographical distributions of the...

Merchant ships discharging unwanted marine species in close proximity of a French aquaculture area: Risks involved
Provedor de dados: 5
Autores: Masson, Daniel; Thomas, Gerard; Genauzeau, Sylvie; Le Moine, Olivier; Derrien, Annick.
The most important oyster farming area in Europe is in a close proximity of two medium size merchant ports. Cargo ships deballast in this area before loading, releasing unwanted or noxious marine species. During a sampling campaign aboard these arriving ships, we found in some ballast water samples a huge number of potentially toxic dinoflagellates and some potentially pathogenic bacteria. A model was applied to find the potential geographical spread of the discharged ballast water. This model predicts the water to reach highly vulnerable shellfish farmed areas in six to eight days.

Survival of bacteria and phytoplankton in ship's ballasts
Provedor de dados: 5
Autores: Masson, Daniel; Piquet, Jean-come; Courtois, Olivier.
Billions of tons of ballast water are lreased world-wide every year. Living marine, brackish or freshwater organisms, including those noxioux or unwanted, can travel by that way from a part of the world to another. A successful introduction needs : 1) survival during the pumping process 2) survival in ships' ballasts 3) survival and repreoduction in the new environment. To assess the survival conditions in ship's ballasts, a small scale pilot system has been built (MARTOB project), more realistic than laboratory vials and easier to handle than a real ballast. Bacteria and phytoflagellates coming from ship's sampling or from cultures were introduced in the system ; their survival in several waters or sediments are studied, a useful method to assess the...
