Popis: Production of phenol oxidases by Marasmiellus palmivorus was evaluated in submerged cultures at different pH conditions: uncontrolled (free), fixed at 5.0, 6.0 and 7.0 and controlled after reaching pH 5.0, 6.0 and 7.0. pH (3–8) and temperature (20–45 °C) were optimized for laccase production and the thermal stability (30–60 °C) of laccases was evaluated. In addition, laccase activity in concentrated crude enzyme extract was evaluated. Laccase activity was greatest in production conditions of free pH (1950.6 ± 42.7 U mL−1), free - pH 6 (1901 ± 85.5 U mL−1) and fixed - pH 7 (1851.8 ± 0.0 U mL−1). Laccase activity was highest when reaction conditions were pH 4.0–5.5 and 25–45 °C. By concentrating the crude enzyme extract it was possible to significantly increase laccase activity. The greater the enzymatic activity used in the decolorization of the dyes Reactive Blue 220 and Acid Green 28, the shorter the time required to remove 90% and 75% of the color respectively. Given the results, it is evident that M. palmivorus can secrete high concentrations of phenol oxidases with potential biotechnological applications.
