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 polyglycol fatty acid ester 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 polyglycol fatty acid ester 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 present invention also relates to a composition containing polyglycol fatty acid esters and useable in the above methods. The compositions comprise at least one polyglycol fatty acid ester in an amount effective to inhibit bacteria from adhering to submergible or submerged surfaces.

L'invention porte sur un procédé empêchant des bactéries d'adhérer à une surface submersible. Le procédé consiste à revêtir la surface submersible d'une quantité suffisante d'au moins un ester d'acide gras polyglycol afin d'empêcher des bactéries d'adhérer à cette surface. L'invention concerne également un procédé de lutte contre les biosalissures d'un système aqueux. Ce procédé vise à ajouter une quantité suffisante d'au moins un ester d'acide gras polyglycol afin d'empêcher des bactéries d'adhérer à une surface submersible dans le système aqueux. Ce procédé permet de lutter efficacement contre les bioalissures sans nécessairement tuer les organismes salissants. L'invention traite en outre d'une composition contenant des esters d'acides gras polyglycol, utilisable dans les procédés mentionnés ci-dessus. Ces compositions contiennent au moins un ester d'acide gras polyglycol en quantité suffisante pour empêcher des bactéries d'adhérer à des surfaces submersibles ou immergées.
