✦ Synopsis
Total and specific activities of extra-cellular laccases from Lentinus e&&s were enhanced by adding corn straw and chestnut juice to the liquid growth medium. The aqueous extracts were chemically characterized and revealed the presence of several phenolic and non-phenolic compounds. Extensive extraction of these components from the tested extracts completely annulled their stimulating properties on lactase production, suggesting that these compounds can act at micromole levels.
