Metabolites produced by marine algae have been found to have many antimicrobial properties. These characteristics could then be utilised in man-made materials, e.g. making anti-fouling paints without the environment-damaging chemicals. Research could also aim to produce these biogenic substances on a commercial level using metabolic engineering techniques. One problem they aim to solve is biofouling. Environmentally safe alternatives are needed to TBT (tin-based antifouling agent) which releases toxic compounds into water and environment, and has been banned in several countries.

Answers to Module 7 Questions
I wasn't sure whether the task was asking us to find media or create it, or both. So I have done both. I found this media related to my topic: https://www.flickr.com/photos/internetarchivebookimages/20379117195/in/photolist-9mNF1i-9kDj2y-9kCVyU-9kzkLP-9kCwK1-9kDoVJ-9kCHnm-9kDz5C-wH3oby-x45PCn-9kA53Z-2j6mNY9-neXQax-x3Qixz-wLzRrf-buT7x-tnNnsd and I created some media through photography: https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Yellow_corn_kernels.jpg

Found media:

- This is a diagram of organelles/cells and proteins

- This is not my own work

- The file format is an image

- The license is "No known copyright restrictions"

- Category would be "Scientific Diagrams"

Created media:

- This is a photo of some corn kernels

- This is my own work

- The file format is an image

- I chose the Attributions Share-Alike license

- It had the corn and corn kernels meta tags added

- The file was described as "yellow corn kernels"
