“…Staining, etching, biopitting, and crystal formation were also observed, even after the cleaning procedure (Figure 2 and Appendix A, Figure A2a, marked as 'B', 'E', and 'F', respectively). The darkening of glass surfaces from deterioration processes is often associated with fungal growth [19]. Penicillium chrysogenum spores produced biological colonisation and mycelium growth (with hyphae reaching the edges) in all glass samples (Appendix A, Figure A2b).…”

“…Similar deterioration patterns were reported by other authors-e.g., Kerner-Gang [20] who also reported pits on the glass surface caused by Aspergillus versicolor conidia (spores). Bartosik et al [19] reported the development of conidia of the fungus Aspergillus, together with glass biodeterioration features.…”

“…The present study-where two species of these two genera are inoculated in a soda-lime silicate glass-shows evidence of damage in similarly short periods of time in the present case, the minimum observation time was 4 months. The ability of Aspergillus niger to cause biodeterioration in very different types of glass (optical glass [8,19,20,54] and potassium lime silicate [3,43]) is known from the literature, and once more it is demonstrated that some species (such as the one used here) can promote damage in a soda-lime glass as well. Additionally, damages were also reported for different Penicillium species (potassium-lime-or potassium-silicate [4,43], soda-lime silicate [14], mixed alkali silicate [4], borosilicate [14], and optical glass [8]).…”

The bioreceptivity, and the consequent biodeterioration of contemporary glass, used by artists worldwide, was studied. The two main objectives were: first, to verify if fungi with some culture media would produce more damages than the same fungi without a nutritional source, and to verify if the two genera of fungi produce the same damage on the same glass. Colourless glass samples with Spruce Pine 87 Batch (SPB-87) composition were inoculated with two distinct fungal species, Penicillium chrysogenum and Aspergillus niger, separately: (i) half with fungal spores (simulating primary bioreceptivity), and (ii) half with fungi in a small portion of culture media (simulating organic matter that can be deposited on exposed glassworks, i.e., secondary bioreceptivity). The alteration of glass surfaces were analysed by Optical Microscopy, SEM-EDS and µ-Raman. The mycelium of Penicillium chrysogenum generated a higher amount of fingerprints, stains and iridescence, whereas Aspergillus niger produced more biopitting and crystals on the glass surface. However, both species damaged the glass to different degrees in 4 and 6 months after the inoculation, producing physico-chemical damage (e.g., iridescence, biopitting), and chemical alterations (e.g., depletion and deposition of elements and crystals). The primary bioreceptivity experiment of glass samples inoculated with Aspergillus niger results in less damage than in the case of secondary bioreceptivity, being almost similar for Penicillium chrysogenum. The new and in-depth understanding of the bioreceptivity and deterioration of post-modern glass art and cultural heritage provided here is of paramount importance for the scientific, conservation and artistic communities – to protect glass cultural materials, or seen by artists as innovative and inspirational ways of creating glass art in the future.

The colonization and growth of harmful fungi on the glass surface have caused irreversible damage to optical quality. Harmful grades observed on the optical instruments depend on the biological characteristics of fungi that vary from species to species. The present study focused on isolation, identification, and evaluation of glass biodeterioration properties such as organic acid and exopolysaccharide production of fungal strain Chaetomium globosum TTHF1-3 isolated from lens of optical instrument collected at Thai Hoa, Nghe An province. Under microscopic observation, the fungal strain TTHF1-3 cells showed brown or dark brown color perithecia and ascospores. Based on ITS sequence analyses, the strain TTHF1-3 was found to share 100% sequence identity with that of C. globosum species deposited on GenBank (NCBI). A in situ biodeterioration test exhibited the hyphal surface coverage of strain TTHF1-3 reaching 29.77±1.15%, which corresponded to harmful grade 2 based on the ISO 9022-11:2015 criteria. When incubated on MT4 medium containing glucose and mineral elements, the pH values of C. globosum TTHF1-3 culture were significantly decreased from 6.5 to 3.12±0.12, which was in contrast to MT1 medium. In addition, fungal strain TTHF1-3 was able to produce 8.2±0.3 g/L exopolysaccharides. The findings in the present study confirmed that C. globosum TTHF1-3 was harmful fungus responsible for glass biodeterioration.

“…Laboratory tests on unglazed ceramic roof tiles have shown that fungi are able to form bioprecipitates and penetrate into pores affecting the material integrity [16,17]. In addition, several studies focused on stained glass windows from cultural heritage assets [18][19][20] and laboratory-based colonization experiments [14,15,21,22] have provided important insights into glass biodeterioration by fungi, showing that they able to cause glass biocorrosion. Yet, studies on the biodeterioration of glazed tiles have mainly focused on the identification of colonizing microorganisms [4][5][6]8,10] and no laboratory experiments have been performed on fungal biodeterioration of historical glazed ceramic tiles.…”

h i g h l i g h t s Fungal bioreceptivity and biodeterioration of historical glazed tiles models was studied. Tile models with two different ageing degrees (pristine and artificially aged) were tested. 12-month laboratory colonization experiment was conducted with the tiles inoculated with fungi. Biogenic calcium oxalate compounds were formed due to fungal biodeterioration. Bioreceptivity and biodeterioration was not correlated with ageing degree.
