Abstract

Laccase from fungi have attained considerable attention due to the involvement in transformation and degradation of many polymers, ring cleavage of aromatic compounds and many phenolic compounds with the help of reduction of oxygen to water. Two fungal species were (Pleurotus. ostreatusand Pseudolagarobasidium acaciicola) used to study the production of laccase by solid state fermentation method on different lignocellulosic waste like rice bran, rice husk, wheat bran, and wheat straw. Presence of cellulose, lignin and hemicellulose in different lignocellulosic waste are rich in nutrients which promotes fungal growth in solid-state fermentation. From results it was confirmed that the rice bran produces higher concentration of laccasethan other lignocellulosic substrate.
