| Abstract | The biotreatment of industrial effluents that contain heavy metals, detergents and metal chelating agents represents a great concern to industries as these compounds are either toxic to microbes or they act as non-competitive inhibitors/denaturing agents for several enzymes. So, it is essential to know the effect of various agents usually present in the treatment plant on activity of the enzyme, for extending its applications in in situ treatment processes. This study describes the immobilization conditions of laccase and analysis of the sensitivity of immobilized laccase from Trichoderma viride Pers NFCCI-2745 to heavy metals, detergent and copper chelating agents. The concentrations and combinations of cations influenced the activity of immobilized enzyme and its yield. The immobilized Cu–Ba alginate enzyme showed comparatively higher activity compared to the Cu-alginate enzyme. Most of the metal ions tested enhanced laccase activity at lower concentration. Immobilized laccase retained more than 70 % of its activity even in the presence of 20 mM copper chelating agents like EDTA and sodium thioglycolic acid. Sodium azide, on the other hand, inhibited 80 % of the activity of all the beads even at a very low concentration of 0.5 mM. Cu–Ba and Cu–Ni alginate enzyme exhibited comparatively higher tolerance than Cu-alginate beads to EDTA and sodium thioglycolate. Tween 20 and cetyl trimethyl ammonium bromide significantly increased the activity of all the beads. These properties of the immobilized laccase may be aptly considered and suitably utilized in treating phenolic effluents that may contain heavy metals, detergents and certain copper chelating agents which may otherwise pose a threat to enzymatic activity. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
