Anthraquinone (Disperse Red 9,
Reactive Blue 19, Acid Blue 225),
azo (Acid Orange 5), diazo (Reactive
Black 5), triazo (Direct Blue 71),
indigoid (Acid Blue 74), triarylmeth-
ane (Acid Violet 17, Basic Violet 3),
Reactive Blue 221

LiP was a minor constituent of the
enzyme preparations, Laccase was
predominant. MnP was also present.

Manganese-
dependent
peroxidase
(MnP)

Bjerkandera
adusta

Azo (Reactive Violet 5, Reactive
Orange 96, Reactive Red 198), diazo
(Reactive Black 5), Phthalocyanine
(Reactive Blue 15, Reactive Blue 38)

MnP from B. adusta oxidizes dyes in
a manganese-independent manner
similar to P. eryngii MnP, maybe
DyP or versatile peroxidase

[148]

Anthraquinone (Reactive Blue 19), azo
(Acid Orange 7, Disperse Yellow
211), diazo (Reactive Black 5, Acid
Red 111), Disperse Blue 354

Geotrichum candidum also decolor-
ized Reactive Black 5 albeit incom-
pletely, maybe DyP? Disperse dyes
were more resistant to enzymatic
treatment

[151]

P. chrysosporium Anthraquinone (Poly R-478), triaryl-

methane (Basic Violet 3)

70% and 30% decolorization in two
hours (continuous enzyme addition)

[146]

Pleurotus ostreatus Anthraquinone (Poly R-478), azo

(Acid Orange 52), diazo (Direct
Red 28), heterocyclic (Basic Blue 9,
Basic Blue 17), triarylmethane
(Basic Violet 3, Basic Green 4,
bromophenol blue)

Probably versatile peroxidase, hetero-
cyclic dyes were more resistant
