Coupling of 3-(3-tert-butyl-4-hydroxyphenyl) propionic acid methylester to 1H-benzotriazole using a laccase from Trametes hirsuta was studied. The potentially resulting coupling product Tinuvin 1130 is an important UV-absorber used in polymer based materials. Oxidation of the phenol by the laccase led to homomolecular coupling reactions while the laccase did not attack 1H-benzotriazole. Due to the homomolecular...
From a screening for the production of new proteases specific for cuticle scales, Beauveria brongniartii was selected producing an alkaline Ca++ dependent protease. The purified had a molecular weight of 27 kDa and a pI value of 8.0. Substrate specificities of model substrates (wool with partially removed cuticles treated with SDS) were analyzed by protein release, dissolved organic carbon (DOC) and nitrogen an...
The kinetics of laccase-catalyzed transformation of the azo-dye Diamond Black PV 200 (CI Mordant Black 9) and various related synthesized derivatives were analyzed for dependence on pH and substrate structure. The reaction mixture of Diamond Black PV 200 was analyzed by HPLC/MS_/MS and it was shown that upon laccase oxidation, reactive chinoid fragments of lower molecular weight were formed. These may further o...
