Figure 4From: Detoxification of 5-hydroxymethylfurfural by the Pleurotus ostreatus lignolytic enzymes aryl alcohol oxidase and dehydrogenase In vitro AAO activity is increased in the extracellular fraction of P. ostreatus after addition of HMF to the medium. The activity of AAO following 1Â mM veratryl alcohol addition as a substrate was monitored in free cell extracts of P. ostreatus, at different time points after addition of 30 or 20Â mM HMF to the media. Bars indicate standard errors.Back to article page
