Abstract
Laccase was identified very early but the potential of the enzyme has cached the eyes of the researchers globally for two decades. The multifarious applications of laccase have enabled its application in various industrial and environmental sectors. The enzyme has been used for the delignification of lignocellulosic biomass, paper, and pulp industries. The manufacture of fibreboard via the chemical treatment releases formaldehyde and pollutes the environment thereby harming flora, fauna, and humans residing in the nearby areas. Thus, the heed for develo** non-polluting technologies gained attention amongst the scientific community and laccase was one of the most apt alternatives for the synthesis of the fibreboard via biological treatment methods. As biological treatment methods are used the synthesis process is eco-friendly, non-polluting, and sustainable as well. Thus, the chapter would elaborate the structure of laccase, the general mode of action of laccase, its role in the synthesis of composite and its mechanism of action on plant fiber. Further to gain better insight other reported applications of laccases are also discussed along with its limitations and future prospect.
