The influences of a series of new azo direct dyes including copper-complexes based on benzidine congeners, 2,2'-dimethyl-5,5'-dipropoxybenzidine and 5,5'-dipropoxybenzidine, were examined using microorganism, Daphnia magna. The purpose of the research described in this paper was to use bioassays with daphnids to determine the aquatic toxicity of new azo dyes in which copper was incorporated. The results clearly show that copper has negative effects to aquatic ecosystem as expected. The study also suggested that the assay with Daphnia magna was an excellent method to evaluate the influences of dyes to the aquatic environment.

Temporarily solubilized azo disperse dyes based on 1,2-substituted indoles were synthesized and characterized. Dispersant-free dyeing of polyester by using the synthesized dyes has been investigated. The colour yields of the dyes on the polyester fabric were found to be highly dependent on the dyeing pH, optimum results being obtained at pH 5. The dyes exhibited good to excellent fastness properties on polyester while lightfastness was moderate.

Biodegradation of azo dyes such as Amaranth, Sudan III and Congo-Red by Aspergillus sojae B-10 was demonstrated using Aspergillus sojae B-10. Aspergillus sojae B-10 showed the greatest decolorization ability when it was cultivated in a nitrogen-limited medium containing, azo dyes(10 mg/l), 2.0% glucose, 0.06% sodium nitrate, 0.1% $KH_PO_4$, 0.5% MgSO_4$ㆍ$7H_2O$ at pH 5.0 and $37^\circ{C}$ for 5 days. Under optimal conditions, Amaranth started being decolorized within 24 hr and was almost complete after decolorization of 4 days incubation. Sudan III was completely decolorized after a cultivation of 5 days. However, Congo-Red was not completely decolorized until 5 days of cultivation.

Aspergillus sojae B-l0 was immobilized and used to treat model dye compounds. The model wastewater, containing 10 ppm of azo dyes such as Amaranth, Sudan III, and Congo Red, was treated with cells attached to a rotating disc contactor (RDC). Amaranth was decolorized more easily than were Sudan III and Congo Red. Decolorization of Amaranth began within a day, and the dye was completely decolorized within 5 days of incubation. Both Sudan III and Congo Red were almost completely decolorized after 5 days of incubation. Semicontinuous decolorization of azo by reusing attached mycelia resulted in almost complete decolorization in 20 days. This experiment indicated that decolorization was successfully conducted by removing azo dyes with Aspergillus sojae B-10.

Azo dyes containing effluents from different industries pose threats to the environment. Though there are physico-chemical methods to treat such effluents, bioremediation is considered to be the best eco-compatible technique. In this communication, we discuss the decolorization potentiality of five azo dyes by Podoscypha elegans (G. Mey.) Pat., a macro-fungus, found growing on the leaf-litter layer of Bethuadahari Wildlife Sanctuary in West Bengal, India. The fungus exhibited high laccase and very low manganese peroxidase activities under different culture conditions. Decolorization of five high-molecular weight azo dyes, viz., Orange G, Congo Red, Direct Blue 15, Rose Bengal and Direct Yellow 27 by the fungus was found to be positive in all cases. Maximum and minimum mean decolorization percentages were recorded in Rose Bengal (70.41%) and Direct Blue 15 (24.8%), respectively. This is the first record of lignolytic study and dye decolorization by P. elegans.

Twenty-one different fungi were tested for their ability to decolorize a wide range of structurally different dyes. Twenty fungal strains were isolated from fruiting bodies which were collected at the Kwangneung National Arboretum, Korea. One fungal strain were isolated from a rotting wood at Soongsil University, Korea. Nine kinds of dyes were used: three anthraquinone dyes and six azo dyes. The five fungal strains, Laetiporus sulphureus, Polyporus arcularius. Auricularia polytricha, Stereum ostrea, and Bjerkandera sp. UK-l showed decolorization ability. Except Auricularia polytricha, the four fungal strains were wood rotting fungi, and belonged to Aphyllophorales. Bjerkandera sp. UK-I, which was a white rot fungus, could decolorize all kinds of dyes tested in this study, indicating this fungus is one of candidates for applying in biological methods of dye waste treatment.

Penicillium janthinellum의 생균체와 변형 균체를 사용한 azo와 reactive계 염료의 생흡착에 대한 연구가 수행되었다. 반응액의 pH가 초기 흡착율과 탈색에 영향을 주어, 최적 pH는 3.0이었으며, 최적 온도는 $40^{\circ}C$이었다. Reactive계 염료인 Apollocion Red 7EB와 Apollfix Red SF-3B와 Apollocion Red HE-3B는 각각 초기 흡착율이 0.06, 0.086, 0.07mg/g.mm이었다. Azo와 reactive 계 염료들을 함유한 혼합염료도Pen janthinellum 균체에 흡착되어 0.084mg/g.min의 초기 흡착율을 보였다. Detergent 첨가시 탈색 백분율과 초기 흡착율은 대조군의 경우보다 낮았다. 또한 이온의 첨가는 염료의 흡착율에 영향을 미치지 않았다 Pen janthinellum의 변형 균체도 염료의 흡착율을 보였고, Apollocion Red 7EB의 흡착에 있어 이온교환수지보다 월등한 흡착능을 보였다.

영가금속을 이용한 아조계 염료의 탈색연구를 수행하였다. 아조계 염료는 대부분 생물학적 독성을 갖고 있으며 생물학적 분해가 어려운 경우가 많다. 색을 제거하기 위한 가장 간단한 방법은 아조결합을 파괴하는 것이며 영가금속을 이용한 환원적 제거가 가능하다. 3종의 염료를(Cibacron Briliant Yellow 3G-P (CBY3G-P), Benzopurpurin 4b (B-4B), Chicago sky blue 6b (CSB6B)) 대상으로 연구하였으며 각 염료의 반응속도는 pH에 매우 의존적이며 낮은 pH에서 반응속도가 증가되었다. 영가철에서 용해된 철이온에 의한 응집 및 침전반응도 색도제거에 기여할 수 있으며 본 연구에서는 그 기여율을 알기 위해 철이온에 의한 제거실험을 수행하였으며 그 기여율은 대상 염료에 따라 편차가 크다는 것을 알 수 있었다. 본 연구에서는 영가철에 의한 환원반응에 의해아조계 염료가 성공적으로 탈색될 수 있음을 증명하였다.

Studies of relationship between structure and toxicity of azo dyes have been performed with comparative molecular field analysis (CoMFA) techniques. 3D QSTR analyses indicate that the steric and electrostatic interactions are important. The steric field based model gives strong correlation ($q^2$=0.57, $r^2$= 0.92). The steric field in conjunction with electrostatic field give more strong correlation ($q^2$=0.57, $r^2$=0.95). All study indicates that a bulky and electronegative group at benzene ring and a small group at position 3 of aniline ring might be significant to reduce the mutagenicity.
