Abstract:The white rot fungus Phanerochaete chrysosporium has been identified to be an environmentally useful microorganism for the degradation of various hazardous pollutants, mainly because of its ligninolytic enzyme system, particularly the lignin peroxidase (LiP) secreted by the fungus. In the present work, the behavior of the fungus in liquid medium due to variation in physico-chemical parameters, i.e., glucose concentration, nitrogen concentration, agitation, etc., was studied. Increment of the initial concentration of glucose in the medium increases the biomass growth and LiP activity, when cultured under controlled conditions. The biomass growth and LiP activity by the fungus was modeled following stochastic approach. The behavior of growth and enzyme activity of the fungus observed from the model were found to be in agreement with the experiments qualitatively.
