“…Laccase is also used in combination with other enzymes, such as versatile peroxidase and glucose oxidase (Touahar et al, 2014) or tyrosinase (Ba et al, 2014a) in pharmaceutical removal. Other processes, such as adsorption, are also found to improve compound removal when used in combination with laccase biodegradation (Ba et al, 2014b; Nguyen et al, 2014b,d; Xu et al, 2014; Ji et al, 2016a). Horseradish peroxidase is more efficient than laccase in triclosan removal (Melo et al, 2016), and versatile peroxidase has a wider removal spectrum than laccase (Touahar et al, 2014).…”

“…Real wastewater has elevated pH compared with the optimized buffer system and potential laccase inhibitors (e.g., organic matter, heavy metals, and ions). However, a few studies still achieved efficient pharmaceutical degradation in real wastewaters (Garcia et al, 2011; Ba et al, 2014a,b; Rodríguez-Delgado et al, 2016). …”

Laccases are a family of copper-containing oxidases with important applications in bioremediation and other various industrial and biotechnological areas. There have been over two dozen reviews on laccases since 2010 covering various aspects of this group of versatile enzymes, from their occurrence, biochemical properties, and expression to immobilization and applications. This review is not intended to be all-encompassing; instead, we highlighted some of the latest developments in basic and applied laccase research with an emphasis on laccase-mediated bioremediation of pharmaceuticals, especially antibiotics. Pharmaceuticals are a broad class of emerging organic contaminants that are recalcitrant and prevalent. The recent surge in the relevant literature justifies a short review on the topic. Since low laccase yields in natural and genetically modified hosts constitute a bottleneck to industrial-scale applications, we also accentuated a genus of laccase-producing white-rot fungi, Cerrena, and included a discussion with regards to regulation of laccase expression.

“…The potential of laccase and MnP for removal of EDC in wastewater has been well studied (Auriol et al., ; Ba, Jones, & Cabana, ; Cabana, Jones, & Agathos, 2007b, ; Kim, Yeo, Kim, & Choi, ; Lloret et al., ; Sei, Takeda, Soda, Fujita, & Ike, ). However, there is dearth of information on the use of VP for EDC elimination.…”

Ligninolytic enzymes: Versatile biocatalysts for the elimination of endocrine‐disrupting chemicals in wastewater

et al. 2018

Direct municipal wastewater effluent discharge from treatment plants has been identified as the major source of endocrine‐disrupting chemicals (EDC) in freshwaters. Consequently, efficient elimination of EDC in wastewater is significant to good water quality. However, conventional wastewater treatment approaches have been deficient in the complete removal of these contaminants. Hence, the exploration of new and more efficient methods for elimination of EDC in wastewater is imperative. Enzymatic treatment approach has been suggested as a suitable option. Nonetheless, ligninolytic enzymes seem to be the most promising group of enzymes for EDC elimination, perhaps, owing to their unique catalytic properties and characteristic high redox potentials for oxidation of a wide spectrum of organic compounds. Therefore, this paper discusses the potential of some ligninolytic enzymes (laccase, manganese peroxidase, and versatile peroxidase) in the elimination of EDC in wastewater and proposes a new scheme of wastewater treatment process for EDC removal.

“…However, there has been increment in interests of enzymatic membrane reactors for environmental purposes. Lloret, et al [96] studied the removal of estrogenic compounds from filtered secondary wastewater effluent while Ba, et al [97] studied the removal of aromatic pharmaceuticals in wastewater. The enzymes were trapped in the membrane either using smaller pore size of membrane and/or insolubilized enzyme which aggregated sizes are larger than the pores of the membrane.…”
