Abstract: [Study in Portugal. "The results show that anatase is a better agent for preventing biodeterioration than the two tested conventional biocides, both in mortar slabs and in situ studies. In fact, photographic and colorimetric records made in two external walls of Palácio Nacional da Pena after two weeks of treatment applications showed that lichens and other phototrophic microorganisms disappear from the places where anatase was applied."]
