Low relevanceAzo dye (direct blue 14) decolorization by immobilized extracellular enzymes of Pleurotus species.
Pleurotus eryngii
Key points
- Four species of Pleurotus i.e., P. florida, P. ostreatus, P. citrinopileatus and P. eryngii were evaluated for laccase and MnP production in submerged condition
- Among these P. ostreatus showed highest production of laccase and MnP. Twelve days old culture of P. ostreatus produced 1096 U/ml and 693.5 U/ml of the laccase and MnP, respectively
- Crude extracts of enzymes from P. ostreatus were immobilized in Ca— alginate matrix and tested for decolorization activity of the azo dye (Direct blue; CI 23850) in aerobic and microaerophilic condition for 24h
- Treatment of dye with the immobilized enzymes decolorized up to 99% in eighteen hour
