UTM OTEC POTENTIAL RESEARCH STATION WITHIN NATIONAL MARINE RESEARCH PARK : Sipadan Island The island of Sipadan is actually a rocky outcrop which rises dramatically from the ocean floor. The island has a perimeter of less than 1600 metres, and an area of about 12 hectares. The fringing reefs are in all about 10-15 times the size of the island. From the edge of any part of the reef, the drop-off is up to 600 metres. 13 innovative ● entrepreneurial ● global www.utm.my 13

Products from DSW Total of DSW supply: 700,000 Metric Tons/yrs (2009 of data) ∴ 2192 Metric Tons /day Aquaculture: umi bodou (seaweed), Japanese tiger prawn and fish. *Japanese tiger prawn: 35% of Japan market Fig. shows the sales of DSW for related products in 2009. Twenty two companies used the water as total sales of JPY 2,035,000,000 in that year. Fisheries-related products are the largest of the sales. It is followed by 27 % of cosmetic-related product and 13% of food-related products. See at Fig. 1 for details.

Samples of Basic and Applied Research Being Conducted on DSW In general, the following areas have received attention from several private and government funded organizations, primarily in Asia. Topic of Research Abstract Research into the attributes of deep seawater such as Constituents and attributes of deep seawater constituents, purity, temperature, algae production, etc. Research into the health promoting effects of deep seawater baths and efficient methods of usage with the cooperation of monitors. Application to health promotion fields Development of health drinks using deep seawater as a base ingredient Research into the positive effects of deep seawater on the human body. Extraction and production of anti-allergic substances from algae cultured in deep seawater for use in pharmaceuticals, agrichemicals, foods, etc. Application to medicines, agrichemicals, foods, etc. Extraction and production of new anti-cancer agents from microorganisms isolated from deep seawater for use in pharmaceuticals, agrichemicals, etc. Development of breads, pickled foods, etc. Applicable research of the sterility, purity, plant cultivation, liquid solution, freshness preservation of agricultural products, etc. of electrolytic deep Application to sterilization and freshness preservation seawater Research into the manufacturing of brackish ice for use in maintaining the freshness of fish Application to agricultural fields Deep seawater use in agricultural fields. 26 innovative ● entrepreneurial ● global www.utm.my 26
Drinking Water As photosynthesis does not occur at depths where sunlight does not penetrate, inorganic nutrients are not consumed. As a result, in comparison with surface water, deep seawater contains a high amount of inorganic nutrients including nitrogen and phosphorus, which are consumed by phytoplankton. The balance of minerals is also favorable. The amount of organic matter and bacteria in deep seawater is considerably less than in surface water. Deep seawater is extremely pure from both a chemical and microbiological standpoint. 27 innovative ● entrepreneurial ● global www.utm.my 27
Skin Care and Cosmetics Shu Uemura Cosmetics has had good results in developing and marketing face lotions and cosmetics using deep seawater for its rapid skin-absorption qualities, more than double that of ordinary water. A recent paper published by Dr. Hajime Kimata from the Department of Pediatrics and Allergy, Uji-City, Japan: (" Reduction of Allergic Skin Responses and Serum Allergen-Specific IgE and IgE-Inducing Cytokines by Drinking Deep Seawater in Patients with Allergic Rhinitis ") is typical of the results being obtained from studies conducted on skin-care and other topical uses of DSW. Muroto City and other agencies support marketing research and test research into the use of deep seawater, while sponsoring experimental research linked with local universities and hospitals into improving skin conditions such as atopic dermatitis and boosting immunity. 28 innovative ● entrepreneurial ● global www.utm.my 28
