A phenoloxidase-producing fungus - Cladosporium cladosporioides - was isolated from water of a bog lake. At high concentrations of carbon (333 mM) and nitrogen (12 mM), the fungus demonstrated the formation of a laccase and a high ligninolytic activity. After addition of riverine or groundwater humic substances into culture media (ca. 1 mg mL(-1)), the fungus showed the ability of degrading (utilizing) of about 60 % of these substances. However, the exact quantification of the degree of degra...A phenoloxidase-producing fungus - Cladosporium cladosporioides - was isolated from water of a bog lake. At high concentrations of carbon (333 mM) and nitrogen (12 mM), the fungus demonstrated the formation of a laccase and a high ligninolytic activity. After addition of riverine or groundwater humic substances into culture media (ca. 1 mg mL(-1)), the fungus showed the ability of degrading (utilizing) of about 60 % of these substances. However, the exact quantification of the degree of degradation was difficult because of adsorption of humic matter on fungal mycelium. Reisolated humic substances were lower in aromatic and higher in aliphatic structures. A crude enzyme from the C, cladosporioides culture showed only low activity in decolorizing humic substances, whereas decolorization up to 50 % was observed when using a laccase preparation from Polyporus versicolor, and especially in the presence of a redox mediator. » weiterlesen» einklappen
