Original Abstract

The textile industry, by far the most frequent user of synthetic dyes, is in need of ecologically efficient solutions for its colored wastewaters. White-rot basidiomycetes are among the most potent organisms to biodegrade and detoxify a wide range of pollutants and synthetic dyes, enabled by ligninolytic enzymes, namely, laccases. Present study was undertaken to explore white-rot fungi Trametes versicolor and Fomes fomentarius for their laccase production and potential in dye decolorization. The laccase production was induced by 0.5 mM copper sulphate and their effectity in decolorization of five types of synthetic textile dyes (N-heterocyclic, azo, triphenylmethane and triarylmethane) was studied. The most effective laccase decolorization was observed for the dyes Malachite Green and Bromothymol Blue using 0.5 mM copper as inducer for both fungi.
