Fungal laccase obtained from a Cerrena unicolor strain was used as an effective biocatalyst for the transformation of 8-anilino-1-naphthalenesulfonic acid into a green-coloured antibacterial compound, which can be considered as both an antimicrobial agent and a textile dye, simultaneously. The process of biosynthesis was performed in buffered solut...
Novel sustainable processes involving oxidative enzymatic catalysts are considered as an alternative for classical organic chemistry. The unique physicochemical and bioactive properties of novel bio-products can be obtained using fungal laccase as catalyst. Among them are textile biodyes synthesised during oxidation of substrates belonging to the a...
Three serine protease inhibitors (AEBSF, soy inhibitor, α1-antitrypsin) were covalently immobilized on the surface of three polymer prostheses with the optimized method. The immobilization efficiency ranged from 11 to 51%, depending on the chosen inhibitor and biomaterial. The highest activity for all inhibitors was observed in the case of immobili...
From the earliest times, medicine has focused on finding the most suitable and effective treatment for every patient. At present, a dynamic development of diagnostic methods and techniques for designing new drugs allows to create therapies for many diseases at the molecular level. Among the many drugs appearing on the medical market every year, spe...
Pepsin was immobilized via covalent bonds on different carriers: a silica gel carrier, acrylic beads, and a cellulose-based carrier - Granocel. All carriers were functionalized through the presence of -OH, -COOH, -NH2, or glycidyl groups on their surfaces. Three different cross-linkers were used for activation thereof. The results showed that Grano...
Fungal polysaccharides (PSs) are the subject of research in many fields of science and industry. Many properties of PSs have already been confirmed and the list of postulated functions continues to grow. Fungal PSs are classified into different groups according to systematic affinity, structure (linear and branched), sugar composition (homo- and he...
The secretion of exopolysaccharides and oxalic acid in cultures of a white rot Ganoderma applanatum strain and a brown rot Tyromyces palustris strain were tested in terms of culture time, pH range, and temperature. The high yield of exopolysaccharides (EPS) required a moderate temperature of 28 °C for G. applanatum and 20 °C for T. palustris.
G. ap...
Ligninolytic fungi (white rot and litter-decomposing fungi) are a physiological rather than taxonomic group connecting fungal strains which are capable of extensively degrading lignin. The unique physiological and biochemical properties permit these fungi to transform and mineralize of wide range of organopollutants with structural similarities to...

Project (1)
The aim of this project was analysis of selected physicochemical, biological and pharmacological properties of materials used in medicine - two types of polyester vascular prostheses and polyester-polypropylene prosthesis of skull bone - whose surface will be modified by attaching of the synthetic inhibitor of proteolytic enzymes (AEBSF, commercial name - Pefabloc® SC).
