“…In general, it is accepted that in order to increase the potential use of enzymes in wastewater treatment processes, their immobilization is absolutely essential for biochemical stability and reuse [20][21][22]. Consequently, several studies support the immobilization of laccase.…”

“…The main drawback of this class of dyes is that they are not easily degraded by aerobic bacteria, and with the action of anaerobic or microaerobic reductive bacteria, they can form toxic and/or mutagenic compounds such as aromatic amines (9, 10, 34). There is a great environmental concern about the fate of these dyes, with special emphasis on reactive dyeing of cellulosic fibers, where large amounts of unbound dye are discharged in the effluent (24).Laccases have been extensively studied for their degradation of azo dyes (1,5,8,17,19,21,23,33). These enzymes are multicopper phenol oxidases that decolorize azo dyes through a highly nonspecific free radical mechanism forming phenolic compounds, thereby avoiding the formation of toxic aromatic amines (8,35).…”

“…In order to extend the applications of laccase more efficiently in industrial processes and biotreatment, their immobilization is necessary as it will potentiate its biochemical stability and reusability (Couto et al 2004;Delanoy et al 2005;Peralta-Zamora et al 2003). Laccase is a copper-dependent enzyme, and the enzyme immobilized in copper alginate is likely to retain more activity than laccase immobilized using other methods.…”
