In order to evaluate the impact of xenobiotics on fungal communities of sediments, lentic ecosystems have been reconstituted in the laboratory and examined before as well as after contamination. Microcosms (2 litres) have been treated with three different concentrations of pentachlorophenol (PCP) (
## Abstract The extracellular enzymes and cell mass from the pregrown __Phanerochaete chrysosporium__ cultures were used for the degradation of PCP. The use of both extracellular enzymes and cell mass resulted in extensive mineralization of PCP, while the action of only the crude extracellular enzy
