Catalytic four-electron reduction of O2 to water is one of the most extensively studied
electrochemical reactions due to O2 exceptional availability and high O2/H2O redox …

A comparative study has been performed with several fungal laccases for the oxidation of a
series of phenols, anilines, and benzenethiols and for the inhibition by halides. The …

Multicopper oxidases (MCO), such as laccases and bilirubin oxidases, are catalysts of wide
interest in a range of biotechnological applications, especially bioremediation and energy …

Due to slow kinetics of electron transfer, dioxygen is reduced at a platinum cathode several
hundred millivolts negative of its formal potential. Biological catalysts, in combination with …

A biofuel cell operating at a power density of 50 μW cm− 2 at a 0.5 V cell potential under
physiological conditions (air saturated, pH 7.4, 0.14 M NaCl, 37.5 C, 15 mM glucose) is …

Fungal laccases are extracellular multinuclear copper-containing oxidases that have been
proposed to be involved in ligninolysis and degradation of xenobiotics. Here, we show that …

Rhus vernicifera (Rv) laccase was purified to electrophoretic homogeneity by hydrophobic
interaction chromatography. A comprehensive study of the direct electrochemistry of Rv …

The white-rot fungus Trametes trogii excretes a main laccase showing a molecular mass of
70 kDa, acidic isoelectric point and N-terminal sequence homol-ogous to that of several …

The commonly used assay for measuring cellobiose dehydrogenase (CDH) activity, based
on the reduction of dichlorophenol-indophenol (DCIP), has been adapted to measure this …

Recent years have seen an increasing interest in laccase enzymes. Due to their ability of
oxidizing various substrates, they are nowadays applied in multiple industrial fields …
