The present disclosure provides a laundry care composition having at least one laundry care ingredient and at least one leuco composition conforming to Formula (I):
Ar.sup.1Ar.sup.2Ar.sup.3CH  (I)
wherein Ar.sup.2 and Ar.sup.3 are independently a carbocyclic aryl or heteroaryl, and Ar.sup.1 is selected from the group consisting of: unsubstituted phenyl, electron deficient carbocyclic aryl, and heteroaryl. The present disclosure also provides a method of determining an authentic laundry care composition and test kits for detecting authentic laundry care compositions.

The present disclosure relates to a textile detergent having at least one protease and a detergent ingredient for cleaning textiles by removing protease-sensitive stains. The protease may have proteolytic activity and include an amino acid sequence having at least 70% sequence identity with the amino acid sequence given in SEQ ID NO:1 over its entire length and, in each case based on the numbering according to SEQ ID NO:1. The protease may have amino acid substitutions at the positions corresponding to positions 3, 4, 99, or 199; and at least one additional amino acid substitution at at least one of the positions corresponding to positions 74, 136, 143, 154, 161, 163, 171, 200, 203, 209, 212 or 256. The textile detergent may have a pH ranging from approximately 9 to approximately 12, measured in a 1 wt. % solution in deionized water at 20° C.

The product of the invention allows cleaning products to be obtained by substantially increasing the oil-to-soap conversion rate to minimise the amount of product to be used, with minimum energy use and maximum transformation speed, allowing work with large volumes of oil. For this purpose, the product for obtaining cleaning products from vegetable oils comprises the following composition in % by weight: sodium dodecyl sulphate (SDS) between 9 and 11%, anhydrous trisodium phosphate between 4.5 and 6%, sodium stearate between 0.1 and 0.3%, xanthan gum between 0.5 and 0.7%, optionally brightener and/or perfume, and the amount of water needed to reach 100%.

The present disclosure is in the field of enzyme technology, in particular the lipolytic action of enzymes on fats and oils, as used, for example, in washing agents or cleaning agents. The present disclosure relates to an agent, in particular washing or cleaning agent, which contains a lipase as defined herein. Furthermore, the present disclosure relates to a method for the cleaning of textiles and the use of the agent as contemplated herein for the removal of soilings.

Photoactivators comprise a photoactive moiety and a hydrophilic moiety. The photoactivators preferably comprise less than about 35%, by weight of the photoactivator, of the photoactive moiety. The photoactivators can be activated to a photo-excited state by excitation with incident radiation of a wavelength between about 350 nm and 750 nm, preferably between about 350 nm and about 420 nm. The photoactivators further encompass those having certain chemical formulations.
