   Dr Veronica Cross of CSIRO Novels Materials & Processes says, ‘The Smart Oyster Tray means higher-grade, meatier oysters, because the young growing oyster is not obstructed from the free flow of nutrient-rich seawater it feeds on. The Smart Oyster Tray also means less work for oyster farmers, who for years have fought off the seaweed and algae growth that has crowded the long-lines and trays suspended from rafts in "off-the-bottom" oyster farming'.
   
   Fouling is often removed at harvest by hand, by low or high-pressure hoses, or by dipping "young" stock in a solution that kills unwanted organisms. All very laborious tasks that are now no longer necessary', says Dr Cross.
   
   The new Smart Oyster Tray comes in the form of a traditionally shaped oyster tray, manufactured with specially designed polymers (plastics) that contain slow-release, harmless biodegradable antifouling chemicals. Dr Cross says, ‘The Smart Oyster Tray is a high-density polyethylene, which contains an environmentally benign antifouling chemical agent within the plastic's molecular structure, which is slowly released over time.

   Dr Cross says that CSIRO is currently interested in discussing the development of its technology for commercial use with parties with an interest in the manufacture and marketing of aquaculture products.
