Abstract

The phenomenon of biodeterioration of stone materials is particularly relevant when the environmental conditions, the supply of nutrients, and the edaphic conditions (bioreceptivity) favor biological growth (Caneva et al. 2008; Cutler & Viles 2010; Miller et al. 2012). Different treatment methods, such as UV, laser cleaning, microwaves, and heat shock treatments (HSTs) (Tretiach et al. 2012; Mascalchi et al. 2015; Caneva & Tescari 2017; Fidanza & Caneva 2019), such as several biocidal substances have been used in combination with prevention strategies.
