Decolorisation of synthetic dyes by crude laccase from Rigidoporus lignosus W1

Abstract: BACKGROUND: Effluents from the dyeing process containing dyes are difficult to degrade biologically. Therefore enzymatic dye decolorisation has received considerable attention recently. In this study the dye decolorisation potential of crude laccase from the white rot fungus Rigidoporus lignosus W1 was demonstrated on an anthraquinone dye, Remazol Brilliant Blue R (RBBR), and a triphenylmethane dye, malachite green (MG). Effects of pH, temperature and ionic strength on laccase activity and decolorisation effic… Show more

“…Biological processes have received increasing interest owing to their lower cost, higher efficiency and, in particular, environmental friendliness (Li et al 2009). Several microorganisms are capable of degrading synthetic dyes including bacteria, fungi and algae (Parshetti et al 2006;Dhaneshvar et al 2007;Bazanella et al 2013a).…”

“…In terms of treatments for textile wastewater, traditional methods such as physical, chemical, electrochemical methods are costly and could produce secondary pollutants [8][9][10]. In contrast, biodegradation attracts more interest from researchers owing to its low cost, excellent efficiency and environmental friendliness [11,12].…”

“…Synthetic dyes are extensively used in the textile industry because of their favorable characteristics of bright color, being easily water soluble, cheaper to produce and easier to apply with natural fi bers like wool, cotton, silk and synthetic fi bers like polyesters, acrylic, rayon 3 . The synthetic dyes have complex molecular structures, which make them more stable and diffi cult to biodegrade 4, 5 . The dyes are designed to be resistant to fading by chemicals and light 6 .…”
