Ceramic roofing tiles suffer deterioration through time due to environmental exposure. Biological colonization affects the appearance and integrity of building materials, such as roofing tiles. The resistance to biocolonization represents an important property affecting the product quality of ceramic roofing tiles. While natural colonization of roofing tiles by organisms is a progressive, heterogeneous, and slow process, laboratory assessment of this phenomenon requires a sensitive procedure that can be carried out within a reasonable period of time. Different microorganisms have been evaluated and the use of phototrophs, specifically the cyanobacterium Oscillatoria, presented several advantages such as good adherence, homogeneous growth on surfaces, and the chlorophyll-autofluorescence which can be used for a sensitive detection. Colonization by Oscillatoria on roofing tiles was assessed by measuring the autofluorescence of cells. This study proposes the use of specific cyanobacterial cells and a simple method for monitoring biofilm formation and biological colonization of roofing tiles. [-]
