ABSTRACT:
The present invention relates to a method of inhibiting the formation of CaCO.sub.3 -containing deposits on a surface by applying a composition comprising an anti calcification-effective amount of a poly amino acid, a poly amino acid amide or derivative thereof. The present method is useful for the prevention and/or retardation (inhibition) of inorganic scaling, as well as for the inhibition of fouling by plant or animal organisms.
