Paper is a basic material derived from organic carbon used for writing and storing information. Books, letters, maps, and official documents are written on paper and enable the transfer of information from generation to generation. Archives and libraries provide an excellent food source for many microorganisms with their organic carbon sources and as a result, they cause biodeterioration. The rate of biodeterioration, on the other hand, depends not only on the composite properties of archival materials, but also on the environment in which they are found.
In this study, which was carried out to contribute to active conservation practices, microbial samples were taken from the Department of Culture and Registration. These microbial samples belong to two works with archive numbers 756 and 759, located in the archive room of the Safranbolu collection in the central library within the Foundation Records Directorate. As a biocidal product, the active ingredients were 20% chlorhexidine digluconate, 15% polyhexanide, 3.9% lactic acid, 4.5% acetic acid and 70% ethyl alcohol, respectively. The effects of biocidal products on microorganisms were investigated by the disc diffusion method. Evaluation of the effectiveness on paper, which is important for conservation, was carried out with short and long-term aging tests, colour spectroscopy and SEM fibre degradation analyses.

Kağıt Eserlerin Konservasyonunda Alternatif Biyosidallerin Rolü ve Etkinliklerinin Değerlendirilmesi

Öz

Kağıt, yazı yazmak ve bilgiyi saklamak için kullanılan organik karbon kaynaklı temel bir malzemedir. Kitaplar, mektuplar, haritalar ve resmi belgeler kağıt üzerine yazılarak bilginin kuşaktan kuşağa aktarılmasını sağlamaktadırlar. Arşivler ve kütüphaneler sahip oldukları bu organik karbon kaynakları ile birçok mikroorganizma için mükemmel bir besin kaynağı sağlamakta ve sonuç olarak biyodeterasyona (biyolojik bozulmaya) neden olmaktadırlar. Biyodeterasyon hızı ise arşiv malzemelerinin kompozit özelliklerine bağlı olduğu kadar bulundukları ortama da bağlılık göstermektedirler.
Aktif konservasyon uygulamalarına katkı sağlamak amacıyla gerçekleştirilen bu çalışmada mikrobiyal örnekler Kültür ve Tescil Dairesi Başkanlığı (Vakıf Kayıtlar Müdürlüğü) bünyesindeki merkez kütüphanede yer alan Safranbolu koleksiyonuna ait arşiv odasında yer alan 756 ve 759 arşiv numarasına sahip iki eserden elde edilmiştir. Biyosidal ürün olarak aktif maddeleri sırasıyla %20’lik klorheksidin diglukonat, %15’lik poliheksanid, %3,9’lik laktik asit, %4,5’lik asetik asit ve %70’lik etil alkol kullanılmıştır. Biyosidal ürünlerin mikroorganizmalar üzerindeki etkileri disk difüzyon yöntemi ile araştırılmıştır. Konservasyon açısından önemli olan kağıt üzerindeki etkinlik değerlendirilmesi ise kısa ve uzun vadeli yaşlandırma testi, renk spektroskopisi ve SEM lif deterasyon analizleri ile gerçekleştirilmiştir.
