textile effluents contain different kinds of chemical dyes and many mutagenic and carcinogenic substances. discharge of these effluents into terrestrial and aquatic ecosystems causes harmful effects. in this research, decolorization of a textile effluent by nineteen different strains of fungi was investigated. removal activity of dyes was in order of   aspergillus > rhizopus > fuzarium > penici...

To achieve effective decolorization of reactive dyes, laccase immobilization was investigated. Laccase 0.2% (m/V) (Denilite IIS) was trapped in beads of alginate/gelatin blent with polyethylene glycol (PEG), and then the supporters were activated by cross-linking with glutaraldehyde. The results of repeated batch decolorization showed that gelatin and appropriate concentration of glutaraldehyde...
