Medium relevanceApplications of Trametes versicolor crude culture filtrates in detoxification of biomass pretreatment hydrolyzates.
Trametes versicolor
Key points
- Laccases have wide range of substrate specificity and find applications from pulp industry to waste water remediation
- Laccases have also been used in combined pretreatment of biomass hydrolyzates to remove enzymatic and fermentation inhibitors
- In this study, laccase production by Trametes versicolor strains isolated from different regions of the United States was induced using copper salts
- T. versicolor crude culture filtrates (CCF), without any purification step, were tested for removal of model inhibitor compounds as well as in poplar and rice straw pretreatment hydrolyzates
- Phenolic inhibitors were removed by 76% and 94% from the dilute acid hydrolyzates of rice straw and poplar, respectively, when incubated with the CCF for 12h, at room temperature
- Xylo-oligosaccharide concentrations present in rice straw hydrolyzates were reduced by 64% when incubated with T. versicolor CCF. T. versicolor CCF could be a low cost technology for decreasing enzymatic and fermentation inhibitors
