Ground Healing of Mythological and Similar Preservation Heavy Artillery using Spore
Author(s): Sophie Leonard*
The bio-stimulated healing of cracks in historical and newly designed lime mortar
samples was the primary focus of this study. The investigation began with the
thorough characterization of historical mortars. Next, a compatible conservation
mortar was designed and characterized, with the formation of contact zones
between the original and conservation mortars being the primary focus. The
design of a two-component liquid bio-stimulating crack-sealing agent was the
next step: nutrients and bacteria culture of Sporosarcina pasteurii DSM 33 the
potential for bio-stimulated surface-crack repair was investigated using historical
and conservation mortar samples. The 150-day experiment enabled the ureolytic
bacteria Sporosarcina pasteurii DSM 33 to precipitate calcium carbonate into cracks
and repair the tested materials' damaged surfaces. Over the course of 150 days,
the healing phen.. View More»
