Effects of pH, Temperature and Agitation on the Decolourisation of Dyes by Laccase-Containing Enzyme Preparation from Pleurotus sajor-caju

(1) Background: In this study, the effects of different pH values (2.4, 3.2, 4.4 and 5.0), temperatures (30, 35, 40, 45 and 50°C) and agitation (100 rpm) on the enzymatic decolourisation of twenty-two dyes belonging to the chromophore groups anthraquinone, azo and triphenylmethane were assessed.
