Biodegradation of Lignin by White Rot Fungi
Fungal Genetics and Biology, 1999A review is presented related to the biochemistry of lignocellulose transformation. The biodegradation of wood constituents is currently understood as a multienzymatic process with the mediation of small molecules; therefore, this review will focus on the roles of these small molecular compounds and radicals working in concert with enzymes.

Pollutant Degradation by White Rot Fungi
1994The white rot fungi technology is very different from other more well-established methods of bioremediation (e.g., bacterial systems). The differences are primarily due to the mechanisms discussed previously. The unusual mechanisms used by the fungi provide them with several advantages for pollutant degradation, but the complexity of these mechanisms ...

Biodegradation of Polyvinylchloride (PVC) by White Rot Fungi
Bulletin of Environmental Contamination and Toxicology, 1999Amounts of recalcitrant plastics in the environment and the time required for their total mineralization to CO2 have recently been fully understood. There is a growing interest in biodegradability of the plastics in landfills (Lee et al., 1991). A major area of environmental concern is the disposal of the solid wastes.

Feasibility of bioremediation by white-rot fungi
Applied Microbiology and Biotechnology, 2001The ligninolytic enzymes of white-rot fungi have a broad substrate specificity and have been implicated in the transformation and mineralization of organopollutants with structural similarities to lignin. This review presents evidence for the involvement of these enzymes in white-rot fungal degradation of munitions waste, pesticides, polychlorinated ...

Biodegradation by White-Rot Fungi
2002White-rot basidiomycete fungi selectively decay lignin in plant tissues. They are the only organisms known which are able to extensively mineralise lignin to carbon dioxide and water. This ability is unusual because lignin is a particularly complex aromatic macromolecule intrinsically resistant to enzymatic and hydrolytic attack.

Degradation of styrene by white-rot fungi
Applied Microbiology and Biotechnology, 1997Degradation of styrene in the gaseous phase was investigated for white-rot fungi Pleurotus ostreatus (two strains), Trametes versicolor, Bjerkandera adusta and Phanerochaete chrysosporium. Fungi were grown in liquid culture and the gas/mycelium contact surface was enhanced with the help of perlite.

Degradation of Xenobiotics by White Rot Fungi
1991White rot fungi such as P. chrysosporium degrade the nonrepeating, nonstereoselective, insoluble polymer lignin under conditions of nutrient limitation. The attack on lignin principally involves extracellular peroxidases (ligninases) and hydrogen peroxide. Hydroxyl radicals may also make a significant contribution.

Wood Degradation by Brown-Rot and White-Rot Fungi
2004Elucidating the mechanism of biological wood decay is not only important ecologically due to its role in the carbon cycle, but also due to its economic significance. Research into this fundamental process has resulted in a large number of potential applications in the pulp and paper industry.
