In vivo and in situ synchrotron radiation-based [mu]-XRF reveals elemental distributions during the early attachment phase of barnacle larvae and juvenile barnacles

Barnacles are able to establish stable surface contacts and adhere underwater. While the composition of adult barnacle cement has been intensively studied, far less is known about the composition of the cement of the settlement-stage cypris larva.
