The effect of temperature and culture medium on the degradative activity of Phanerochaete chrysosporium evaluated using three qualitative screening methods

摘要: Abstract The lignin-degrading ability of Phanerochaete chrysosporium (1547) and (1556) is well established thus qualitative screening tests for lignin degradation should indicate that they are capable carrying out this function. In report we show the high degree dependence these methods on temperature and, more importantly, growth medium. Under certain conditions such utilising gallic acid, guaiacol Remazol brilliant blue R will give reactions would suggest two white-rot fungal strains not degraders.
