Abstract:

Microscopic fungi are widely used for synthesis and transformation of biologically active compounds e.g. antibiotics, corticosteroids and androgens. Thefungal strains applied for steroid hormone production are also able to attackpollutants, including deleterious xenobiotics e.g. polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), chlorophenols or organotins to less toxic derivatives. Transformation, detoxification, and degradation of both types of hydrophobic substrates(steroids and xenobiotics), as well as heavy metals recovery from industrialwastes, are in the center of interest of Department of Industrial Microbiologyand Biotechnology. This paper is a short review on a possibility of application ofindustrial strains for environment protection and an introduction to our detailed presentations (1-4) on this subject, during the 2"^ National BiotechnologyCongress in Łódź.
