Abstract
Previous study has shown that a crude manganese peroxidase (MnP) prepa ration from the fungus could bleach oxygen-alkaline treated hardwood k raft pulp (OKP) with manganese, glucose, and glucose oxidase. Using pu rified MnP instead of the crude one also did OKP bleaching with Tween 20. We conclude that MRP is important in this fungal bleaching system.
