9. Waterfriend Waterfriend Pesticides and their degradation products frequently contaminate ground or surface water and soils. This contamination should be prevented as far as possible, not only because of their direct toxicity to man, but also because of their influence on the water biocenosis and their potential accumulation in the food-chain. Extracellular fungal laccases are able to oxidize and polymerize these highly toxic compounds into less soluble, high molecular mass compounds that may be easily removed from water by sedimentation or filtration
