Abstract: The biodeterioration/biodegradation process is an important issue for the conservation of cultural heritage that needs urgent answers to their rehabilitation. In this way, the role of microorganisms in surfaces alteration was exploited. This work revealed a strong relationship between the microbiological proliferation and the damaged areas, evidencing the important role of the microorganisms in mural paintings alteration process. The oxidation of lead-based pigments noticeably contributes to the pigments alteration, and seems to be correlated with the presence of biodeteriorative microorganisms. The study of the mechanisms underlying the microbiological attack of mural paintings has been explored to understand as much as possible the proliferative ability and biodeteriorative capacity of the microorganisms, related to darkening on lead-based pigments
