Screening and Isolation of Laccase Producers, Determination of Optimal Condition for Growth, Laccase Production and Choose the Best Strain

Amutha C and Abhijit M

This study aimed to find out appropriate laccase producing fungi help to greener the environment by decolourising industrial dyes and degrade BPA, besides removing heavy metal (Cd, Cr, Ni and Pb), viability among organisms and functional group activation in presence of heavy metal after comparison with some fungal isolates from terrestrial environment. In this study an important enzyme laccase is identified because it is not only common but easily extractable from fungus and having wide range of industrial and environmental applications. By this reason the best strain among all fungi from different area were compared and optimized its growth along with laccase production in modified Kirk and Farrell media and effect of economical agro wastes on laccase production also checked.
