A comprehensive review on the sources, environmental behavior, and degradation of alkylphenol ethoxylates and their metabolites in surface water and soils. [PDF]
Abstract Alkylphenol ethoxylates (APEOs) and their metabolites, widely used in agricultural, industrial, and household products, are known endocrine disruptors. Since the 1980s, many countries have implemented restrictions on their production and use, necessitating an evaluation of these regulations by reviewing their source and environmental behavior ...

Optimization of manganese peroxidase production by the white rot fungus Bjerkandera sp. strain BOS55 [PDF]
Manganese dependent peroxidase (MnP) is the most ubiquitous peroxidase produced by white rot fungi. MnP is known to be involved in lignin degradation, biobleaching and in the oxidation of hazardous organopollutants. Bjerkandera sp. strain BOS55 is a nitrogen-unregulated white rot fungus which produces high amounts of MnP in the excess of N-nutrients ...

Decolourisation of Remazol Brilliant Blue R via a novel Bjerkandera sp. strain [PDF]
A novel strain of Bjerkandera sp. (B33/3), with particularly high decolourisation activities upon Poly R-478 and Remazol Brilliant Blue R (RBBR) dyes, was isolated. The role of the ligninolytic extracellular enzymes produced by this strain on decolourisation of RBBR was studied in some depth.

Lignin transformation by a versatile peroxidase from a novel Bjerkandera sp. strain [PDF]
A versatile peroxidase, purified from a novel strain of Bjerkandera sp. (B33/3), was tested for its reactivity on a lignin fraction obtained from straw pulping. The effects of such processing parameters as reaction time, pH, and lignin:enzyme ratio were evaluated.

Abstract The forest pathogen, Heterobasidion irregulare, is a serious threat to conifers in North America including Minnesota. Fungi native to Minnesota were isolated and tested in laboratory and field assays to evaluate their antagonism towards H. irregulare. One management strategy for plant pathogens, and especially H. irregulare, is to use fungi as

Application and stability of fungal pigments using jelly sweets as a food model system
A workflow depicting the stability study of fungal pigments in jelly‐sweet model system. Summary Natural pigments have seen an increase in usage over the past decades due to their acclaimed safety and active biological properties. This is in line with the shift in consumer market preferences requiring a source replacement for synthetic colourants ...
