Batch production of Pyranose 2-oxidase from Trametes versicolor (ATCC 11235) in medium with a lignocellulosic substrate and enzymatic bleaching of cotton fabrics.

The aim of this work was to determine new, different and low-cost substrates that can be used for enzyme production from the white rot fungus Trametes versicolor (ATCC 11235) by taking advantage of the broad substrate specificity of pyranose 2-oxidase. In this report, we investigated the production of pyranose 2-oxidase from T. versicolor (ATCC 11235) using ten different agricultural residues such as clover straw, almond shells, hazelnut cobs, grass and others.

Molecularly imprinted polymers for some reactive dyes.

Depending upon their structure, azo- and anthraquinonic dyes are the two major classes and together represent 90% of all organic colorants. Adsorption of dye molecules onto a sorbent can be an effective, low-cost method of color removal. Most of the techniques used for removal of dyes are of high production cost, and the regeneration also makes them uneconomical.

Biodegradation of Direct Blue 15 by free and immobilized Trametes versicolor.

To investigate biodegradability by Trametes versicolor, five structurally different direct azo-dyes--Direct Black 38, Direct Blue 15 (DB 15), Direct Orange 26, Direct Green 6, and Direct Yellow 12--were studied. The DB 15 was determined as the best biodegradable dye by this white-rot fungus. Laccase and manganese peroxidase activities were monitored with the biodegradation process; it was observed that laccase played an important role in the dye degradation, while manganese peroxidase activity could not be detected.

Screening for ligninolytic enzymes from autochthonous fungi and applications for decolorization of Remazole Marine Blue.

This study presents new and alternative fungal strains for the production of ligninolytic enzymes which have great potential to use in industrial and biotechnological processes. Thirty autochthonous fungal strains were harvested from Bornova-Izmir in Turkiye. In the fresh fruitbody extracts laccase, manganese peroxidase and lignin peroxidase activities, which are the principal enzymes responsible for ligninocellulose degradation by Basidiomycetes, were screened.

Pyranose 2-oxidase (P2O): production from trametes versicolor in stirred tank reactor and its partial characterization.

Optimization of pyranose-2-oxidase (P2O) production conditions from Trametes versicolor was carried out in shaking cultures containing glucose, malt, and yeast extracts; the optimum concentration values were found to be 1.5% glucose, 1.0% yeast extract, and 1.

Manganese peroxidase production by immobilized Phanerochaete chrysosporium BKM-F-1767 in a cell bioreactor.

Manganese-dependent peroxidase (MnP) production was performed in an immobilized cell bioreactor in which Phanerochaete chrysosporium BKM-F-1767 was immobilized on polystyrene foam. The immobilized cell culture yielded significantly greater MnP activity than the conventional stationary liquid culture. Cultivation was carried out in batch mode; the effect of glucose concentration was investigated and growth kinetics parameters were found as, micromax=0.

A novel carrier for Phanerochaete chrysosporium immobilization.

Phanerochaete chrysosporium BKMF-1767 cells were immobilized on different carriers. The optimum carrier according to adsorbed P. chrysosporium cells number (86.
