Optimization of phenoxazinone synthase production by response surface methodology and its application in Congo red decolourization

Background: Enzymatic decolourization has been recently proposed as a promising and eco-friendly method for treatment of synthetic dye-contaminated wastewaters. However, the processes require large quantities of enzymes, attracting significant attention in developing efficient methods for mass production...
