  • synthetic dye decolorization by White Rot Fungus ganoderma sp wr 1
    Bioresource Technology, 2007
    Co-Authors: Madhavi S. Revankar, S S Lele
    Abstract:

    Abstract Decolorization of recalcitrant dyes by an indigenous strain of White Rot Fungus isolated from bark of dead tree, WR-1 identified as Ganoderma sp. was investigated. The fermentation medium was optimized using a combination of one factor at a time and orthogonal array method. Maximum decolorization (96%) of 100 ppm amaranth was achieved in 8 h with optimized medium containing 2% starch and 0.125% yeast extract. Rate of dye decolorization by the indigenous isolate Ganoderma sp. WR-1 was very high compared to the most widely used strains of Trametes versicolor and Phanerochaete chrysosporium . The broad-spectrum decolorization efficiency of the isolate was assessed using chemically different dyes. The isolate was further evaluated for the decolorization of industrial effluent. Complete decolorization was achieved in 12 days.

  • decolourization potential of White Rot Fungus phanerochaete chrysosporium on synthetic dye bath effluent containing amido black 10b
    Journal of Saudi Chemical Society, 2014
    Co-Authors: S Senthilkumar, Muthiah Perumalsamy, Janardhana H Prabhu
    Abstract:

    Abstract Synthetic azo dyes are extensively used in textile industry and are not easily degraded into the environment due to their complex structure. Due to the low degree of fixation of these dyes to fabrics, more than 10–15% of the dye does not bind to fabrics during colour processing and release into water bodies as effluent cause serious environmental pollution. White-Rot Fungus is found to be capable of degrading lignin which has a complex structure similar to azo dyes. In this study, the decolourization potential of White-Rot Fungus Phanerochaete chrysosporium , which is capable of decolourizing synthetic dye bath effluent, was investigated. Maximum decolourization of 98% was achieved on the third day under normal conditions. The rate of decolourization carried out at different concentrations revealed that the increase in dye effluent concentration suppresses the percentage decolourization. The optimized amounts of nutrients were found to be 0.5%, 0.1% and 0.5% of glucose, manganese sulphate and ammonium salts, respectively. The addition of inducers such as starch and lignin increased enzyme production and the rate of decolourization.

  • synthetic dye decolorization capacity of White Rot Fungus dichomitus squalens
    Bioresource Technology, 2006
    Co-Authors: Ivana Eichlerova, Ladislav Homolka, Frantisek Nerud
    Abstract:

    The ability to decolorize eight chemically different synthetic dyes (Orange G, Amaranth, Orange I, Remazol Brilliant Blue R (RBBR), Cu-phthalocyanin, Poly R-478, Malachite Green and Crystal Violet) by the White Rot Fungus Dichomitus squalens was evaluated on agar plates. The Fungus showed high decolorization capacity and was able to decolorize all dyes tested, but not to the same extent. Some of the dyes did not limit the decolorization capacity of the strain tested even at a concentration of 2 g/l. The presence of the dyes in solid media reduced the mycelial growth rate of D. squalens; a positive correlation was found between the growth rate and the decolorization ability. Decolorization of Orange G and RBBR was studied also in liquid culture, where both dyes caused an enhancement of ligninolytic enzyme and overall hydrogen peroxide production and a decrease of biomass production. RBBR was removed to a higher extent than Orange G.
