Immobilization of laccase on Sepharose-linked antibody support for decolourization of phenol red

Laccases which are considered as “green tools” in biotechnology have potential to degrade toxic contaminants/synthetic dyes present in industrial effluents. The loss in activity and stability of laccases are key challenges faced in their potential industrial applications. Here, laccase from Trametes versicolor (polypore mushroom) was immobilized on Sepharose-linked antibody support to carry out the decolourization of phenol red. This support was...
