Abstract
The in vitro degradation of anthracene by MnP was investigated for different concentrations of the main cofactors and substrates that affect the catalytic cycle of MnP (Mn2+, H2O2 and organic acids) as well as for other environmental parameters (temperature, air/oxygen atmosphere and light source). The system attained a nearly complete degradation of anthracene, around 100%, after 6Â h of operation under optimal conditions.
