  • Patent number: 6211172
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a method to inhibit bacteria from adhering to a submergible surface. The method contacts the submergible surface with an effective amount of at least one sulfonamide to inhibit bacterial adhesion to the submergible surface. The present invention also relates to a method for controlling biofouling of an aqueous system. This method adds an effective amount of at least one sulfonamide to inhibit bacteria from adhering to a submerged surface within the aqueous system. This method effectively controls biofouling without substantially killing the fouling organisms. The sulfonamide used in the method of the invention has the following formula: The present invention also relates to a composition containing the sulfonamides and useable in the above methods. The compositions comprise at least one sulfonamide in an amount effective to inhibit bacteria from adhering to submergible or submerged surfaces.
