Abstract

The present invention relates to a process for the production of lignolytic enzymes by means of white rot fungi. In the process, a culture composed of the fungi of the subclass of the Aphyllophorales is placed in a closed fermentation vessel filled with a nutrient solution and the suspension is gently moved for the production of pellets of Aphyllophorales, such that there cannot be any shearing forces which would destroy the pellets, wherein the enzymes are produced with the addition of yeasts or benzaldehydes, chlorobenzaldehydes, nitrobenzaldehydes, hydroxybenzaldehydes, aminobenzaldehydes, methylbenzaldehydes, diaryls or triaryls, dialkylalkanes, trialkyl alkanes, open-chained or cyclic imines or derivatives of the aforementioned substances as inductive compounds, wherein the induction may take place one time or several times, and the enzymes are subsequently harvested.
