With an increase in the use of steel in heritage works, there is a high risk of iron mobilisation, which can result in the orange staining on nearby surfaces. This issue becomes especially relevant when dealing with marble structures of historical significance. To address this, conservators seek cleaning materials tailored to the specific structure without causing harm to the original surface. Agar, a substance that has been extensively studied, proves to be effective as a hydrogel by creating a controlled water release system, accommodating the needs of conservators for optimal cleanliness without compromising the material. In order to enhance cleaning efficiency, chelating agents like EDTA can be incorporated into the agar hydrogel composition. However, drawbacks such as microbiological growth and resultant damage on the surface of the original material must be considered. To overcome these challenges, alternative natural cleaning materials like gels made of kudzu and konjac are explored, combined with green chelating agents such as citrate, <span>l</span>-cysteine and oxalate. Different analytical techniques were used to characterize the mock-ups, before and after the staining, and to evaluate their cleaning potential, such us Raman spectroscopy, colorimetry, X-ray fluorescence (XRF), and inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS). Moreover, two reproducible and easily applicable methods to generate iron staining in marble mock-ups have been developed because of their absence in the literature. Raman spectroscopy confirmed the presence of goethite and lepidocrocite, the main minerals in real iron staining. Using XRF spectroscopy, it was found that the leachate method produced a staining with the highest amount of iron, while the Mohr method produced more homogeneous staining. Konjac gels were found to be the most effective for removing iron staining from marble surfaces when compared to other gels. In addition, konjac gels require less energy in their preparation because no heat is used in their preparation. Their efficiency is further enhanced by the addition of the chelators <span>l</span>-cysteine and citrate, being an ideal alternative to EDTA in cleaning iron staining from marble surfaces. The use of EDTA chelator is not recommended on marble surfaces due to its high affinity for calcium and the fact that, unlike the <span>l</span>-cysteine and citrate chelators, it is highly toxic to the environment.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":15480,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Cultural Heritage","volume":"73 ","pages":"Pages 93-101"},"PeriodicalIF":3.5,"publicationDate":"2025-03-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143628653","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"综合性期刊","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This species produces abundant large reproductive bodies (perithecia) creating micropits with aesthetic impacts that persist even after the lichen is no longer present. The aim of this study was to gain insight into how these micropits develop and their effects on colonized limestone. By both light and electron microscopy, the various stages of micropit development were examined from the emergence of perithecia on the stone surface until their decay. The potential for other microorganisms to colonize these micropits and the surrounding stone was also assessed through metabarcoding analysis. Our results indicate that the formation and emergence of perithecia caused more pronounced structural damage to the limestone than reported biogeochemical processes attributed to the endolithic spread of symbiont cells within the stone. As the thallus and perithecium disintegrate, micropits fill with mineral fragments, while micrite and algal layers vanish. This eventually leads to the removal of up 0.5 mm of stone surface, leaving behind a surface marked by empty, shallow micropits. Bacterial colonies were observed at all defined stages, initially associated with the micrite layer and later with perithecium remnants. No specific signs of biodeterioration activity on the limestone could be attributed to these bacterial colonies. Metabarcoding results revealed a lower bacterial diversity in micropits with healthy perithecia and a greater abundance of cyanobacteria compared to empty micropits or those containing only perithecium remnants. However, no significant differences in bacterial community structure were detected across the different micropit stages, suggesting that new taxa rarely become established during micropit development. Our study provides new insight into the effects of endolithic lichens associated with perithecium micropit formation. Knowledge of this biodeterioration mechanism is essential for the design of preservation strategies for Persepolis and other sites featuring the dominance of these lichens.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":15480,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Cultural Heritage","volume":"73 ","pages":"Pages 82-92"},"PeriodicalIF":3.5,"publicationDate":"2025-03-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143620081","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"综合性期刊","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Pulsed high voltage high frequency power supply was designed to sustain a gas discharge between a cathodic metallic pin and anodic water electrode. The glass samples were immersed completely inside the water and discharge take place over the surface of the water in open air. Different kinds of active species were formed over and inside the water surface including hydroxyl group (OH), atomic oxygen (O), atomic hydrogen (H) molecular hydrogen (H<sub>2</sub>), Hydrogen peroxide (H<sub>2</sub>O<sub>2</sub>) and UV radiation. The cleaning mechanisms will be discussed in this research at different discharge current, 0.268, 0.36 and 0.4A at exposure time range from 5 min. to 20 min., applied at fixed frequency (10 kHz) and sustaining voltage (500v). All currents successfully cleaned 95.5% from soot from the bare glass surfaces (parts without enamel). Cleaning results of enameled surfaces varied from current to another, at 0.268A plasma could clean 76% from the soot and at 0.36A, plasma could clean 65% from the soot. The third current (0.4A) causes destruction for the enamel by removing parts from them. It could be concluded that, small current is considered the safest and successful one to be used in cleaning the Islamic glass samples despite the relatively long time of exposure to plasma. The previous results will enable us to consider the possibility of using this novel technique in cleaning historical Islamic glass lamps pieces in various museums and archaeological stores.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":15480,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Cultural Heritage","volume":"73 ","pages":"Pages 73-81"},"PeriodicalIF":3.5,"publicationDate":"2025-03-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143610288","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"综合性期刊","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
