Abstract
The pyrolysis/gas chromatography/mass spectrometry (PY/GC/MS) results after fungal treatment of paper-industry effluents suggested a decreas e of the relative amounts of lignin pyrolysis products and of the syri ngyl/guaiacyl ratio, in addition to some oxidation rate of the C3-alky l chain in lignin units. The results obtained pointed to the potential of PY/GC/MS for monitoring the extent of fungal modification of ligni ns by biological systems based on the use of Trametes versicolor.
