A soap bar comprising: (a) 25 to 85% by weight, based on the total weight of the bar, of fatty acid soap; (b) 0.1 to 100 ppm by weight, based on the total weight of the bar, of at least one silver (I) compound having a selected silver ion solubility, wherein at 25? C., a 1 wt % solution of the bar in water has a pH of from 9 to 11.

Disclosed herein is a multi-purpose cleaning solution, wherein the solution comprises vinegar, ammonia, alcohol, and a surfactant. Ammonium acetate forms in the chemical reaction. The multi-purpose cleaning concentrate can be diluted with water.

A soap bar is provided, comprising: a soap; water; a cellulose derivative selected from the group consisting of a hydroxyalkyl alkyl cellulose; and an additive selected from the group consisting of a psyllium, a sodium silicate and mixtures thereof; wherein the soap bar is a solid.

The invention relates to bar composition comprising minimum floor levels of C.sub.10 soap while minimizing ratio of unsaturated C.sub.18 soap to caprate. Such bars provide enhanced rapid, antibacterial activity. Disclosed is a soap bar composition comprising: a) 25 to 85%, preferably 35 to 75% by weight of C.sub.8 to C.sub.24 fatty acid soap comprising: (i) C10 soap at 8% or 15% or greater, more preferably 16 to 32% by weight of total bar composition; and, (ii) unsaturated C.sub.18 soap, wherein weight ratio of said unsaturated C.sub.18 soap to C.sub.10 (caprate) soap is 1.2 to 0.1. b) 1 to 45% organic and inorganic adjuvant materials by weight of the composition; and, c) 5 to 30%, preferably 13 to 28% water by weight of the composition, wherein excess of C.sub.10 soap to unsaturated C.sub.18 soap is at least 6%.

A detergent composition, preferably a manual dishwashing detergent composition, including one or more diol synthases capable of converting one or more unsaturated fatty acids into one or more oxylipins, and a surfactant system including one or more anionic surfactants and one or more co-surfactants selected from the group consisting of amphoteric surfactant, zwitterionic surfactant, and mixtures thereof. Method of using the detergent composition including a surfactant system and the diol synthases are also provided.

A liquid detergent composition, preferably a liquid manual dishwashing detergent composition, comprising one or more hydroperoxy fatty acid producing enzymes selected from the group consisting of: arachidonate lipoxygenases, alpha-dioxygenases, and mixtures thereof, preferably alpha-dioxygenases, a surfactant system and a liquid carrier (i.e., water). Methods of washing comprising the liquid detergent composition are also provided.

A surfactant containing detergent composition, preferably a manual dishwashing detergent composition, comprising either a combination of one or more hydroperoxy fatty acid producing enzymes and one or more hydroperoxy fatty acid converting enzymes, or at least one fatty acid processing fusion enzyme comprising at least two catalytic domains: a hydroperoxy fatty acid producing domain and a hydroperoxy fatty acid converting, and methods of using such compositions.

An all-natural, moisturizing soap composition that allows for high vegetable butter fat content while also being capable of processing for high quality bar soap (moisturizing properties without sticky pellets, brittleness, cracking, and/or inhibition of lather formation) and a method for making the same and other soaps is provided. The soap composition may contain up to 50% vegetable butter fat(s). The semi-continuous process for saponification provides a fast and energy efficient alternative to prior art methods, while also allowing for high quality bar soap that contains a high content (up to 50%) of vegetable butter fat(s).

A cleanser for an autoclave unit, comprising natural ingredients, including natural citric acid in powder form of 50 pounds; high purity deionized water having 38 gallons; natural lemon juice having a range of 1 to 1 gallons; dried cloves having a range of 1 to 3 ounces; dried ground garlic having a range of 1 to 3 ounces; dried peppermint leaves having a range of 1 to 3 ounces; dried thyme leaves having a range of 1 to 3 ounces; dried cinnamon having a range of 1 to 3 ounces; dried pimento leaves having a range of 1 to 3 ounces; and a bio-detergent powder made of natural soap having a range of 5 to 10 gallons added to the deionized water.
