Time-dependent electrochemical characteristics of a phenolic and non-phenolic compound in the presence of laccase/ABTS system.

The laccase/ABTS system has found several industrial applications ranging from biodeterioration to biodegradation and bioremediation. However, the capability of the laccase/ABTS system varies depending upon the type of substrate used. Voltammetric studies involving two widely used substrates, i.e.,...

description The laccase/ABTS system has found several industrial applications ranging from biodeterioration to biodegradation and bioremediation. However, the capability of the laccase/ABTS system varies depending upon the type of substrate used. Voltammetric studies involving two widely used substrates, i.e., veratryl alcohol (VA) and alkali lignin (AL), were performed to gain new insight into the electrochemical behavior of the reactions. The individual electrochemical reactions established the differential nature of the two compounds over a concentration range, along with the mediator ABTS producing a distinguishing effect on their oxidative reactions, which was further studied over a 12hour period. It was followed by the reaction of both the compounds against the laccase/ABTS system that helped verify the role of the enzyme and the mediator in the electron transfer process and elucidate the mediated oxidations carried out by laccase against the phenolic and non-phenolic substrate through the process of cyclic voltammetry.
