The disclosure is directed to cleaning compositions, methods of making the cleaning compositions, and methods of using the cleaning compositions. The cleaning compositions comprise an enzyme composition and a nonionic surfactant having an HLB between 10 and 22. Preferably, the enzyme compositions included in the cleaning compositions comprise a cellulase, an AA9 polypeptide having cellulolytic enhancing activity, a hemicellulase, an esterase, an expansin, a laccase, a ligninolytic enzyme, a pectinase, a peroxidase, a protease, a swollenin, or a combination or mixture thereof. The compositions are useful for degradation of bacterial cellulose.

An aqueous rinse aid solution for use in a dishwashing machine wherein the solution is substantially free of poloxamer type surfactants and wherein the solution produces water sheeting and spot-free dishware drying, the solution consists of food additives permitted for direct addition to food for human consumption and water.

A rubber cleaning composition includes water, a cleaning and oxidation removal agent, a conditioning agent, and a drying agent. The cleaning agent includes citric acid. The conditioning agent includes glycerin. The cleaning and oxidation removal agent is present in a water:cleaning and oxidation removal agent volume ratio of about 100:1 to about 300:1. The conditioning agent is present in a water:conditioning agent volume ratio of about 7:1 to about 8:1. The drying agent is present in a water:drying agent volume ratio of about 1:1 to about 2:1. The composition cleans, protects, and improves performance of rubber, such as climbing shoe rubber.
