Microbial defacement and degradation of artistic or historic
artifacts is a worldwide problem affecting all countries regardless
of their history, geographical location, or economic conditions.
This is the first comprehensive study of the role of microbial
colonization on the degradation of different cultural artifacts
(from buildings to books, wall paintings, textiles, sculptures and
glass) and of the investigations into the compounds utilized to
control microbial invasion. The book focuses on three main areas:
the identification of the microorganisms which cause structural
damage; methods to reduce or prevent microbial colonization and
damage; and the use of microorganisms for the protection and
bioremediation of cultural artifacts.
