  • liquid detergent compositions especially those for the washing of textile fabrics, it is common to include one or more enzymes for assisting removal of various kinds of soil.
  • enzymes for assisting removal of various kinds of soil.
  • proteolytic enzymes often referred to as "proteases”. Proteases are used to assist in the removal of protein-based soil.
  • enzyme stabilising systems commonly consist of a boron compound, e.g. borax, together with a polyol, e.g. glycerol or sorbitol. These components are believed to form an enzyme-inhibiting complex which dissociates by dilution of the composition into the wash liquor, disabling the inhibiting effect so that the protease can act upon the proteinaceous soil.
  • protease stabilisers such as calcium chloride/calcium format are also known but are not as effective as those systems based on boron. On the other hand, it may be desirable for environmental reasons to reduce the amount of boron in the detergent composition.

  • a characteristic feature of lipases is that they exhibit interfacial activation. This means that the enzyme activity is much higher on a substrate which has formed interfaces or micelles, than on fully dissolved substrate.
