3 Effect of microbial oxidative enzymes on soil health
-
Prasann Kumar
Abstract
Some enzymes are produced by bacteria, fungi, and plants that biodegrade toxic organic pollutants. These enzymes are part of the natural process of decomposition and are capable of breaking down complex molecules into simpler substances. These enzymes are produced in large quantities by bacteria, fungi, and plants, which can help break down and degrade toxic organic pollutants. The process of breaking down these pollutants into simpler substances helps reduce the levels of these toxins in the environment, improving overall air and water quality. Microbial enzymes can help the process of bioremediation, an environmentally friendly and cost-effective biotechnology that can reduce the toxicity of pollutants and create novel useful substances. There has been extensive research conducted on enzymes that are involved in bioremediation, such as oxidoreductases and hydrolases. Oxidoreductases are enzymes that oxidize or reduce pollutants, while hydrolases break down complex molecules into simpler ones. These enzymes can break down pollutants into harmless substances, such as carbon dioxide, water and salts. By using these enzymes, pollutants can be safely removed from the environment. By understanding the structure and function of these enzymes, researchers can create more efficient enzymes that can break down pollutants more quickly and effectively. Additionally, by studying the microorganisms that produce these enzymes, researchers can identify new enzymes that can be used to degrade more complex pollutants that current enzymes are not able to degrade.
