[Light optical and electron microscopic study of the microflora of the parchment of an ancient Greek manuscript].
The microflora of an ancient Greek manuscript parchment was studied using different microscopic techniques. The manuscript was found to be infected with a large number of both Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria and with occasional micromycetes. The localisation of cells in the parchment was established, and the information was obtained pertinent to the functional state and the ultrastructural organisation of bacteria, as well as to the character of their interaction with the structural elements of the parchment.
