Notes:
This paper intends to focus the attention to characteristic features of microbial lignin degradation from the phenomenological point of view. Six fundamental principles are discussed under special consideration of white-rot fungi. The necessity of mycelial growth and the formation, secretion, and extracellular action of peroxidases are main requirements for a successful microbial attack on polymeric lignin.
