Description

The effect of 60Co γ-rays and detergents on bacteria isolated from monuments was studied. Most of the heterotrophic bacteria examined were found to be resistant to radiation, whereas nitrifiers were moderately radio-resistant. The most effective growth supression of microorganisms was observed with the simultaneous application of ionizing radiation and detergents. (author) 5 refs.; 3 tabs
