The possible use of olive-mill wastewater (OMW) as a growth medium for the production of extracellular laccase and manganese peroxidase (MnP) from the white-rot fungus Panus tigrinus (P. tigrinus) CBS 577.79 was studied using a properly formulated OMW-based medium (2-fold diluted OMW supplemented with 0.5% sucrose and 0.1% yeast extract) either in a stirred-tank or an air-lift reactor. Solid-state fermentation (SSF) was also performed in a rotary drum reactor using maize stalks moistened with the OMW-based medium. Highest levels of laccase and manganese peroxidase activity were obtained in the stirred-tank reactor (4600+/-98 U l(-1) on day 13) and in the air-lift reactor (410+/-22 on day 7), respectively. Based on total enzyme activities, SSF appears to be more suitable than LSF but the latter exhibits better volumetric productivities.
