“…Manganese peroxidase and laccase have previously been linked directly to the degradation of aromatic compounds, including decoloration of synthetic dyes by white rot fungi [2,11,18,26]. However, dyes containing highly recalcitrant structures could limit the decoloration ability of the fungus since they require higher redox potential of a catalyst to initiate electron distribution in a degradation mechanism [6,16,17].…”

“…Though similar in gross morphology, they have diverse anatomical, physiological, and molecular biological characteristics [15]. Phanerochaete chrysosporium is the most extensively studied white rot fungus due to its effi ciency in attacking a range of condensed aromatic pollutants and lignin [16][17][18][19]. Broader studies of this resupinate group address their biodegradative capabilities [10], and specifi c focus has centered on Dichomitus squalens, Irpex lacteus, and Bjerkandera adusta [2,[20][21][22].…”

“…Most of the white rot fungi are wood rotting basidiomycetes, are capable of decaying lignin based polymers and several variable recalcitrant environmental pollutants due to its inherent ability to secrete cellulolytic and lignolytic enzymes such as lignin peroxidase, manganese peroxidase and laccases which aid the decaying process of dyes and inorganic pollutants (Ogbo et al, 2006). Lignin peroxidase, polyphenol oxidase and laccases produced by white rot fungi, degrade many aromatic compounds (Singh and Pakshirajan, 2010).…”

“…The absorbance was measured at the wavelength corresponding to the maximum absorption for each dye. The discoloration rate was calculated according to the equation: % discoloration = (Ai-Af) / Ai * 100, where Ai is the initial absorbance at λmax and Af is the absorbance after incubation period [28]. All the calculations were verified using a calibration curve.…”
