Abstract
Recognition of the importance of microbiological factors in the deterioration of stone in buildings and monuments is comparatively recent, with attention focusing on the growths and the kinds of deterioration they cause, rather than on their elimination. This paper outlines considerations in the development of treatments for the elimination of microbiological growths from building stone. The goals of biocidal treatment in the context of architectural conservation are delineated, and limitations in the selection and application of biocidal treatments for architecture are discussed; conditions of work in the USA are emphasized. Directions for future work that would be of interest to architectural conservators are suggested, including evaluation of commonly used biocidal materials and development of comprehensive literature reviews.
