Bacterial Laccases as Biocatalysts for the Remediation of Environmental Toxic Pollutants: A Green and Eco-Friendly Approach—A Review

Biological treatment methods for the biodegradation of anthropogenic toxic pollutants are eco-friendly in nature and powered by a variety microbial enzymes. Green chemistry enzymes play crucial role catalyzing organic inorganic including azo dyes; polyaromatic hydrocarbons; lead; cyanides; aromatic amines; mono-, di-, polyphenols; polymers; mercury. Laccases form prospective group multifunctional oxidoreductase with great potential oxidizing different categories their diversified functions, such as pigment formation, lignin degradation, detoxification industrial wastes xenobiotics mainly from pharmaceutical, paper textile, petrochemical industries. Therefore, it is very important to study laccases green environmentally friendly alternatives degradation xenobiotics. This review article will cover comprehensive information about functions properties bacterial deep understanding scope applications effective bioremediation recalcitrant
