The invention discloses a separation and optimization method and an application of a
laccase-producing
fungus strain. Through a color-changing reaction between
guaiacol and
laccase, a
laccase-producing
fungus is screened, and then according to morphologic observation and rDNA-ITS
sequence analysis, myrothecium verrucaria is identified. The myrothecium verrucaria, as a patent preserved strain, is a strain highly producing laccase, and reaches 316 U / ml in
enzyme activity of the produced laccase after optimization, which is higher than that of myrothecium verrucaria NF-05 by 45.08 U / ml. The
enzyme activity and decolorizing rates on nine active dyes of the
fungus strain are much higher than those of talaromyces,
aspergillus and glomerella producing the laccase. Through a
single factor experiment and
uniform design, the optimum conditions of the myrothecium verrucaria producing the laccase are determined. Through HPLC, TLC and
infrared spectrum, the myrothecium verrucaria is proved to have degradation on reactive green 19. The fungus separated from
rhizosphere of
taxus chinensis has excellent application prospect and potential in the fields of
industrial wastewater treatment, green traffic, environment protection and
sustainable development.
