Ligninolytic enzymes production for degradation of organochlorine compound by Trametes versicolor U80

A variety of industrial processes involving chlorine and carbon produce pentachlorobenzene as by-product which is emitted into the environment. The presence of pentachlorobenzene in the environment becomes a great concern due to its persistent, long-range fluid nature and toxic biological effects. In this study, the potential of newly basidiomycetes fungal strain to degrade pentachlorobenzene in liquid medium was evaluated. This study also investigated the enzymatic activities involving the degradation of pentachlorobenzene by fungal strain. These experiments were conducted in agar and liquid media. On agar medium containing pentachlorobenzene, five fungi showed the different abilities of growth with range 40 % to 63 % where strain U80 showed the highest growth on this medium. In morphology analysis, U80 had short cottony, floccose to floccose-cottony, and white. Based on DNA analysis, U80 belongs to the genus Trametes and named Trametes versicolor U80. Trametes versicolor U80 degraded 43 % of pentachloro...
