Abstract The production of ligninolytic enzymes by the fungus Phanerochaetechrysosporium BKM-F-1767 (ATCC 24725) in packed-bed tubular bioreactors, operating in semi-solid-state conditions, was studied. Three types of carriers were assayed: cubes of polyurethane foam, cubes of nylon sponge and chopped corncob, in order to determine the more suitable one to produce ligninolytic enzymes by this fungus. The cultivations were carried out in discontinuous and in continuous mode. For discontinuous cultivation, maximum individual manganese-dependent peroxidase (MnP) activities of 1593, 1371 and 346 U/l were achieved in the bioreactors filled with cubes of nylon sponge, cubes of polyurethane foam and with corncob, respectively. On the other hand, lignin peroxidase (LiP) activities about 100 U/l were found in the two former and around 200 U/l in the latter. Moreover, laccase, was detected in all cultures, with average values of 30 U/l. Nonetheless, continuous mode cultivation led to lower ligninolytic enzyme activities than those produced in discontinuous, except in the case of the corncob. Furthermore, the decolourisation of the dye Poly R-478 by the above-mentioned cultures was investigated. The percentage of biological decolourisation reached was about 70% in the bioreactor filled with cubes of nylon sponge whereas it was rather low in the others (around 30%).
