The invention relates to the stabilization during storage of enzymes comprised in liquid detergent compositions.

A composition and method of treatment for handling potential prion contamination of surfaces is disclosed. The products include and the treatment uses products that include at least one prion digester enzyme selected from a serine protease in solution with a non-ionic surfactant, a hydrotrope and high purity water

The invention relates to a liquid laundry detergent composition suitable for cleaning textiles. In addition to at least one surfactant the detergent according to the invention comprises at least one water-soluble metasilicate, at least one water-soluble bicarbonate, at least one water-soluble glutamate and at least one polymeric rheology modifier in an aqueous medium. These components form a detergent framework allowing to reduce the amount of surfactant(s) compared to conventional liquid detergents, which is advantageous for economic, safety and environmental reasons, as less surfactants are consumed and subsequently disposed into wastewater to achieve the similar washing/cleaning performance.

Peptide aldehydes containing a ureido group are effective as stabilizers for protease in a detergent composition, and as stabilizers for a second enzyme in a liquid composition with a protease.

The present invention relates to polypeptides having hexosaminidase activity, and polynucleotides encoding the polypeptides. The invention also relates to nucleic acid constructs, vectors, and host cells comprising the polynucleotides as well as methods of producing and using the polypeptides.

The present invention relates to novel subtilase variants exhibiting increased stability and preferably on par or improved wash performance. The variants of the invention are suitable for use in e.g. cleaning or detergent compositions, such as laundry detergent compositions and dish wash compositions, including automatic dish wash compositions. The present invention also relates to isolated DNA sequences encoding the variants, expression vectors, host cells, and methods for producing and using the variants of the invention.

A pouch comprising a wall forming a chamber, the wall comprising a water-soluble polymer, and the chamber containing a particulate solid comprising an enzyme, and a liquid comprising a surfactant and/or a polyol. A method of preparing a pouch and a method of preparing an enzyme-containing detergent composition are disclosed.

The invention relates to the stabilization during storage of enzymes comprised in liquid detergent compositions.

Peptide aldehydes containing a ureido group are effective as stabilizers for protease in a detergent composition, and as stabilizers for a second enzyme in a liquid composition with a protease.

The present invention provides methods and compositions comprising at least one neutral metalloprotease enzyme that has improved storage stability. In some embodiments, the neutral metalloprotease finds use in cleaning and other applications. In some particularly preferred embodiments, the present invention provides methods and compositions comprising neutral metalloprotease(s) obtained from Bacillus sp. In some more particularly preferred embodiments, the neutral metalloprotease is obtained from B. amyloliquefaciens. In still further preferred embodiments, the neutral metalloprotease is a variant of the B. amyloliquefaciens neutral metalloprotease. In yet additional embodiments, the neutral metalloprotease is a homolog of the the B. amyloliquefaciens neutral metalloprotease. The present invention finds particular use in applications including, but not limited to cleaning, bleaching and disinfecting.
