#Pleurotusostreatus and Trametes versicolor, Fungal Strains as Remedy for Recalcitrant Pharmaceuticals Removal Current Knowledge and Future Perspectives by Marcelina Jureczko in BJSTR

Abstract

The consumption of #pharmacologicallyactive substances (PhACs) is steadily increasing. According to their recalcitrant nature and low biodegradability in wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs), they occur in rivers, lakes, and even ground and drinking waters. Because of that PhACs are considered to be emerging #pollutants. Therefore new technologies which can be used to degrade them are investigated. Two white-rot fungi (WRF) strains: #Pleurotusostreatus and #Trametesversicolor show quite good PhACs removal values. Broad applications of active and inactivated form of biomass are possible due to different mechanisms of their action, such as #biodegradation by extracellular and #intercellularenzymes or #biosorption. Thus, the versatility for applying fungi, represent that this microorganisms are a promising tool to deal with problem of #pharmaceuticalcompounds elimination from the environment. In this work has been also presented future possibilities, like their application in waste water and sludge treatment or future perspectives of removal of different group of pharmaceuticals by this promising and environmentally friendly technology
