The present invention relates to a method for reducing odor generated by the activity of a lipase comprising a step of adding to said lipase a peptide capable of binding to the lipase.

Odor reduction

The present invention relates to the use of polypeptides related to apolypeptide (amino acids 1-85 of SEQ ID NO: 2) as antimicrobial agents, for example in pharmaceutical applications, including veterinary applications, as well as for preservation, cleaning and disinfection of various surfaces, objects and substances. The polypeptides may in particular be used to treat textiles or laundry, e.g., in detergents, for reducing microbes on textile or laundry, and/or for odor reduction. The invention also relates to use ofstrains producing these polypeptides as antimicrobial agents. Examples of microorganism inhibited by Lento are Gram positive bacterial strains, such as, and various species of, and
