Enzyme granules suitable for incorporating into detergents or cleaners are provided containing an enzyme, a carrier material and a granulation auxiliary containing phosphated starch. The phosphated starch preferably has a mean degree of phosphation ranging from 1.5 to 2.5. Carrier materials include starch, cereal flour, cellulose, alkali metal aluminosilicate, layer silicate and alkali metal salts. Enzymes include proteases, lipases, amylases and cellulases. A preferred carrier material contains water-swellable starch, sucrose, cereal flour and cellulose powder. The granulation auxiliary may contain a co-granulation auxiliary selected from polyethylene glycol having an average molecular weight of from 200 to 6,000, 1,2-propylene glycol and a poly-ethoxylate having a specified formula. Preferred granules have a mean particle size of from 0.3 to 3 mm. The granules are produced by forming a mixture containing an aqueous enzyme-containing liquid such as a concentrated fermentation broth, the carrier material and the granulation auxiliary, extruding the mixture, cutting the extruded mixture to obtain granules, and optionally spheronizing and drying the granules.

Enzyme granules containing phosphated starch

A detergent composition containing surfactant, builder component, oxygen-based bleaching agent, bleach activator, and enzyme, wherein the builder component is an oxidatively modified oligosaccharide which contains a &mdash;COOH group instead of a &mdash;CH(OH)&mdash;CHO group at its originally reducing end group and which has an average degree of oligomerization of from 2 to 20.

Washing agents with specific oxidized oligosaccharides

A laundry detergent for washing fabrics composed of proteinogenic fibers is comprised of at least one surfactant and a proteolytically active amount of a protease having a keratinase/caseinase activity ratio of less than about 0.80.

Zeolite-based phosphate-free detergent builder composition

Use of cationic non-silicate layer compounds in detergents

A detergent composition containing a surfactant, builder, and a fabric softener component comprising one or more tertiary amines containing at least one long-chain alkyl or alkenyl group and a synthetic layer silicate having a smectite-like crystal phase and, compared with natural smectites, a reduced swelling power in water. The detergent composition provides good fabric softening effect and a good detergent effect.

Fabric-softening detergent

Detergent composition containing conventional surfactants and builders, a fabric-softening silicate of the smectite type, and a synthetic incrustation-inhibiting layer silicate having a smectite-like crystal phase and reduced swelling power in water by comparison with natural smectite. The composition provides a significant increase in the softening effect of the detergent on a fabric washed therewith.
