Abstract

Effect of low-frequency pulsed magnetic field and of low-intensity laser radiation on mycelial fungi actively degrading various polymer materials was studied. These factors had a different effect on spores of fungi and mycelia. Irradiation could stimulate and suppress fungal growth. The studied physical factors had dose-dependent effects on activity of the extracellular fungal oxidoreductases (catalase and peroxidase); both increased and decreased enzymatic activities were observed.
