Taxonomic Identification of Micro Organisms Growing on and Cause Biodeterioration of Cultural Heritage of Agra and Mathura Region

Fungi and bacteria have been known to degrade dye particles and other coloring agents. However in the present investigation fungal enzymes deteriorate monument walls and make them ugly. The various historical monuments have been made cracked by fungal and bacterial enzymes like lipase, cellulose, ligninase, pectinase etc. These are secreted by their cell wall. Fungi and bacteria release these enzymes and in presence of moisture and suitable temperature and environmental conditions degrade and break the walls of monuments by deteriorating their rocks and calcium particles. Also various magnesium particles are broken by fungal and bacterial enzymes by growth of fungi in long period of time. The fungi and bacteria have the ability to grow fast also and they continue their growth in historical monuments.
