A convenient separation strategy for fungal anthraquinones by centrifugal partition chromatography
Journal of Separation Science, Volume 45, Issue 5, Page 1031-1041, March 2022., 2022 Abstract As recently shown, some fungal pigments exhibit significant photoactivity turning them into promising agents for the photodynamic treatment of microbial infections or malignant diseases. In the present study, a separation strategy for fungal anthraquinones was developed based on centrifugal partition chromatography.

Fungal Laccases and Their Applications in Bioremediation
Enzyme Research, Volume 2014, Issue 1, 2014., 2014 Laccases are blue multicopper oxidases, which catalyze the monoelectronic oxidation of a broad spectrum of substrates, for example, ortho- and para-diphenols, polyphenols, aminophenols, and aromatic or aliphatic amines, coupled with a full, four‐electron reduction of O2 to H2O.
