International Biodeterioration & Biodegradation, 2004
Abstract Textiles, particularly those composed of natural organic fibres such as cotton, linen, wool, etc., are readily attacked by microorganisms. Most synthetic fabrics are not readily subject to extensive biodeterioration, but some processing and finishing agents are susceptible to microbial spoilage.

Awareness of the importance of ensuring durability of concrete has been a growing concern of engineers, and there is now considerable understanding of the mechanisms, which cause its deterioration, and means of limiting such damage through the use of appropriate materials and approaches to design.

The Biodeterioration of Synthetic Resins Used in Conservation
Macromolecular Bioscience, 2004AbstractSummary: Synthetic resins have been extensively employed by artists in their works of art, e.g. as paint binders, or by conservators for conservation treatments, e.g. as stone consolidants and protectives. It is generally thought that synthetic resins are less prone to chemical, physical and biological deterioration than other organic products ...

Biodeterioration and Disinfectants
1988The role of environmental sites and surfaces and skin surfaces (mainly the hands) in transfer of infection has long been recognised. Under normal circumstances, the healthy adult in the community is relatively resistant to infection but in the hospital environment, where resistance may be compromised, or in various situations where processing of foods,

Environmental Significance of Lichens and Biodeterioration
2019This chapter underlines the environmental values of lichens, an important part of biodiversity on Earth, and at the same time addresses the subject of biodeterioration in detail. Diversity and sociology of lichens, ecological factors effective on growth and distribution of the lichens, bioindicative and biomonitoring roles of lichens in the air ...
