A novel carrier for Phanerochaete chrysosporium immobilization.
Phanerochaete chrysosporium BKMF-1767 cells were immobilized on different carriers. The optimum carrier according to adsorbed P. chrysosporium cells number (86.38%) was determined to be polystyrene foam, a novel carrier. The conditions for the immobilization of cells on polystyrene foam were optimized and determined as 50 rpm, 37 degrees C, and 2h. The results show that the adsorption of P. chrysosporium on polystyrene foam follows the Langmuir adsorption isotherm. High manganese peroxidase activity (421 U/L) and dry mass (4.7 g/L) were recovered from the batch mode polystyrene foam solid state fermentation system.
