Research Abstract

Effects of fumigants and the alternative treatment measures for eradicating museum pests on proteinaceous objects were studied in detail. A model soft tissue protein, freeze dried chicken muscle, was most affected by some fumigants, especially by methyl bromide, methyl iodide and sulfuryl fluoride (Vikane^R). On the other hand, significant change in animal glue and two types of silk textile was not seen in this study. Sensitivity to the treatments seems to vary owing to characteristics and structures of proteinaceous materials treated.
