The
use of enzymes
in detergent formulations
is now common
with over half
of all detergents
presently available
containing enzymes.
Dirt
comes in many
forms and includes
proteins, starches
and lipids. In
addition, clothes
that have been
starched must
be freed of the
starch. Using
detergents in
water at high
temperatures and
with vigorous
mixing, it is
possible to remove
most types of
dirt but the cost
of heating the
water is high
and lengthy mixing
or beating will
shorten the life
of clothing and
other materials.
The use of enzymes
allows lower temperatures
to be employed
and shorter periods
of agitation are
needed, often
after a preliminary
period of soaking.
In general, enzyme
detergents remove
protein from clothes
soiled with blood,
milk, sweat, grass,
etc. far more
effectively than
non-enzyme detergents.
Tex Biosciences through its
in house R& D efforts
has been able to formulate
and successfully commercialize
the use of enzymes in detergents.
