Abstract
The growth of moss, algae and lichen depends on the nature of stone, the climatic conditions and the degree of pollution. Polluted atmosphere prevents the growth, but the biological activity is still present. On the basis of some tests, two formulations are recommended for the prevention of growth of moss, algae and lichen.
