The present invention relates to a method for solubilisation or hydrolysis of Municipal Solid Waste (MSW) with an enzyme blend and an enzyme composition for solubilization of Municipal Solid Waste (MSW), the enzyme composition comprising a cellulolytic background composition and a protease, lipase and/or beta-glucanase.

A method of treating cotton comprising: (i) contacting cotton with an aqueous wash liquor comprising water and an endo--1,3-glucanase enzyme; (ii) optionally rinsing the cotton; and (iii) drying the cotton. The wash liquor may contain surfactant. The cotton may be contacted with the aqueous wash liquor with agitation. The method may be for removal of callose from cotton. The method may be for the manufacture of a cotton-containing fabric having improved whiteness maintenance, soil repellency, reduced malodour, anti-wrinkle benefits, and/or improved drying.

The present invention relates to an expansin-agarase enzyme complex and a method of degrading agar by using the same. The use of the enzyme complex according to the present invention can efficiently degrade agar obtained from marine biomass, and thus can efficiently provide not only galactose or glucose necessary for ethanol production, but also useful biologically active substances, such as diose, triose, and oligosaccharides.

The invention relates to recombinant microorganisms and methods for producing mogroside compounds and mogroside precursors.

The present invention relates to a method for solubilisation or hydrolysis of Municipal Solid Waste (MSW) with an enzyme blend and an enzyme composition for solubilization of Municipal Solid Waste (MSW), the enzyme composition comprising a cellulolytic background composition and a protease, lipase and/or beta-glucanase.

The present invention relates to isolated polypeptides having cellulolytic enhancing activity and polynucleotides encoding the polypeptides, catalytic domains, cellulose binding domains and polynucleotides encoding the polypeptides, catalytic domains or cellulose binding domains. 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, catalytic domains or cellulose binding domains.

The present invention relates to a method for solubilisation or hydrolysis of Municipal Solid Waste (MSW) with an enzyme blend and an enzyme composition for solubilization of Municipal Solid Waste (MSW), the enzyme composition comprising a cellulolytic background composition and a protease, lipase and/or beta-glucanase.
