Experiments for lignin peroxidase production have been conducted by aerobic fermentation of Phanerochaete chrysosporium under low shear rate and enriched oxygen environment. The result of flask cultures of white rot fungus indicated that high oxygen concentration and low shear force were essential for enhancement of lignin peroxidase production. Pentachlorophenol was readily degraded by lignin peroxidase produced in nutrient limited flask cultures. Polyurethane foam was fond to be an effective immobilization matrix of P. chrysosporium.
