U ovom radu istražena je mogućnost upotrebe micelijskih peleta gljive bijelog truljenja Trametes versicolor CCBAS AG 613 s ciljem uklanjanja sintetskog bojila malahitnog zelenila iz vodene otopine. Istraživan je utjecaj početne koncentracije biomase, koncentracije malahitnog zelenila i dodatka glukoze u otopinu bojila na postotak uklanjanja bojila. U gotovo svim provedenim pokusima postotak uklanjanja bojila nakon 24 h iznosio je preko 80 %. Povećanjem početne koncentracije biomase došlo je do povećanja postotka uklanjanja bojila; dok je povećanje koncentracije bojila, neovisno o početnoj koncentraciji biomase, imalo suprotan učinak. Dodatak glukoze u vodenu otopinu bojila rezultirao je manjim postotkom uklanjanja bojila. Nadalje, istražena je mogućnost ponovnog korištenja peleta u drugom ciklusu. U ponovljenom testu peleti su zadržali sposobnost uklanjanja bojila iz vodene otopine malahitnog zelenila, ali u nešto manjem postotku nego prilikom prvog korištenja. Ovi preliminarni rezultati upućuju na mogućnost korištenja micelijskih peleta T. versicolor CCBAS AG613 za biološku obradu otpadnih voda obojenih malahitnim zelenilom. The aim of this study was to investigate the malachite green removal (decolourisation) ability of white rot fungus Trametes versicolor CCBAS AG613 mycelial pellets. The effect of initial biomass concentration, malachite green concentration and glucose addition on dye percentage removal was investigated. The dye percentage removal of more than 80% was achieved after 24 h in almost all runs. An increase in the initial biomass concentration positively affected the removal, resulting in higher dye percentage removal. However, the increase in dye concentration had the opposite effect. The addition of glucose to the dye solution resulted in slightly lower dye percentage removal. Furthermore, the longevity of pellets’ decolourisation activity was tested in repeated-batch mode. When used in repeated-batch mode, pellets still exhibited the malachite green decolourisation activity but to a slightly lower extent. These preliminary results indicate that T. versicolor CCBAS AG613 mycelial pellets could be effectively used for bioremediation of malachite green coloured wastewaters.
