Abstract
This study demonstrated that Fidia's statue Cecrops and Pandrossos is polluted by a lithomicroflora consisting of bacteria- -even sulphur-cycle bacteria, microfungi and yeasts. The attempt to identify some biocides able in vitro to inhibit the total lithomicroflora growing on the statue was successful. Studies showed that Isothiazolinone chloride exerts in vitro on the isolated cultures of bacteria, microfungi and yeasts the best biocidal activity at very low concentrations.
