Degradation of Synthetic Dyes by Laccases – A Mini-Review

Abstract: Laccases provide a promising future as a tool to be used in the field of biodegradation of synthetic dyes with different chemical structures. These enzymes are able to oxidize a wide range of phenolic substrates without the presence of additional co-factors. Laccases have been confirmed for their potential of synthetic dye degradation from wastewater and degradation products of these enzymatic reactions become less toxic than selected dyes. This study discusses the potential of laccase enzymes as agents for la… Show more

“…SAC01, and also Alcántara et al (2017) for yeast species. Previous studies have indicated that the toxicity of azo dyes strongly depends on chemical structure, functional groups and the number of azo bonds (Costa et al 2012;Legerská et al 2016;Da Costa et al 2017). This was also confirmed in this study showing the relatively higher toxicity of α-naphtol dye Acid Violet 7 comparing to β-naphtol dye Orange G. Even more importantly, laccase treatment resulted in degradation products with no toxicity on tested microorganisms (Table 3).…”

“…Azonaphthalene dyes have naphthalene ring with delocalized conjugated bonds of carbon atoms stabilise total structure of azo dye (Zhu et al 2012). Moreover, functional groups present in their structure are responsible for various physical properties such as solubility, lipophilicity or absorption (Legerská et al 2016;Da Costa et al 2017). Approximately 2 -50 % of synthetic dyes used in industrial dyeing operations have been discharged into wastewater (Sarkar et al 2017).…”

“…Among the various fungi, white rot fungi are the well-known and potent producers of laccase. In recent years laccase have attracted commercial significance due to their extensive use in food (Minussi et al 2002;Rodrìguez and Toca Herrera 2006), textile (Abadulla et al 2000), pulp and paper industry, waste water treatment (Casa et al 2003), bioremediation (Duran and Esposito 2000), nano-biotechnology, agrobiotechnology and pharmaceutical industries (Rodríguez-Delgado et al 2015;Legerská et al 2016). Laccase can be produced by batch, fed-batch or continuous cultivation.…”

“…Therefore, these enzymes are potentially used for different industrial applications including agro-food, chemical or pharmaceutical industries (Rodríguez-Delgado et al 2015;Legerská et al 2016). The main problem of laccase applications for the commercial purposes is the high costs of their production.…”
