Fungal laccases are preferred due to high redox potentials and low substrate specificity to xenobiotics including synthetic dyes. For large-scale applications, low enzyme yield and high cost of production has remained the challenge. Agroindustrial waste such as saw-dust of Termin...

Laccases catalyze a broad range of substrates due to their low substrate specificity and strong oxidative potentials. It can be produce from different sources which include plants, prokaryotes, arthropods and fungi especially Trametes sp. In this study laccases were produced by T...

Laccases produced by Trametes sp. are extracellular multi-copper oxidases, capable of oxidising large number of xenobiotics including dyes. Challenges often encountered in large-scale utilisation include the high cost of production, low yield and unstable enzymes. Lignocellulosic...
