A detergent or cleaning agent that has an antimicrobial effect and includes at least one tetracarboxylic acid or the salts thereof in combination with at least one biocidal quaternary ammonium compound.

Detergent or cleaning agent having GLDA-enhanced antimicrobial effect

The present invention relates to aqueous peptide-functionalized polyurethane dispersions that can be used as adhesives, in particular for metal surfaces, such as steel surfaces. As hybrid materials, they provide for a versatile system that can be finely tuned and combine the advantageous properties of polyurethane and peptide materials. Also encompassed are processes for their production, compositions containing them and their use as coatings and adhesives.

Aqueous peptide-functionalized polyurethane dispersions

The present invention relates to peptides, in particular dodecapeptide-containing coating agents, adhesion promoters or adhesives for oxidic surfaces, a multilayer composite or a coated substrate, containing compounds which are formed entirely or in part of dodecapeptides as adhesion promoters between at least two adjacent layers of the composite or between the coating and the substrate, and to dodecapeptides that can be used as coating agents, adhesion promoters or adhesives for oxidic surfaces.

Peptides that can be used in coating agents, adhesion promoters or adhesives for oxidic surfaces

Non-ionic surfactants are used to reduce the adhesion of microorganisms to surfaces of materials by coating such surfaces with the surfactants or incorporating the surfactants into the materials.

Adhesion inhibition of microorganisms by non-ionic surfactants

The invention relates to a novel enzyme obtained from(DSM 9948), which can be regarded as cyclodextrin glucanotransferase (CGTase) and also as &#x3b1;-amylase. The invention also relates to sufficiently similar proteins or derivatives that exhibit amylolytic and/or CGTase activity, to the corresponding nucleic acids and micro-organisms that produce said proteins and derivatives, to methods for the production of said proteins and to diverse uses of the same. In addition, said proteins can be further developed for other, predominantly technical purposes. The invention relates in particular to detergents and cleaning agents containing CGTase of this type, to methods for cleaning textiles or hard surfaces using CGTase of this type or corresponding agents and to the use thereof for cleaning textiles or hard surfaces.

Cyclodextrin glucanotransferase (CGTase), obtained from&#x3c;I&#x3e;Bacillus agaradherens&#x3c;&#x3bb;&#x3e;(DSM 9948) and detergents and cleaning agents containing said novel cyclodextrin glucanotransferase

Compounds of the Formula I, wherein Ais O or NH; Ais O or S; each of Rand Ris independently hydrogen, a methyl or C-C-saturated or mono- or doubly unsaturated, branched or linear hydrocarbon group; and Ris a C-C-saturated or mono- or doubly unsaturated, branched or linear hydrocarbon group wherein, each of R, Rand Rcomprises a heteroatom selected from the group consisting of O and S in the chain and/or is mono- or multiply-substituted by a substituent selected from the group consisting of halogen, hydroxy, C-C-alkyl, trifluoromethyl, C-C-alkoxy, C-C-aryl, and C-C-alkyl-C-C-aryl are useful for controlling the interaction process between microorganisms such as in the development and/or maturation of biofilms; multicellular swarm behavior; the concerted development of antibiotic resistances; the concerted synthesis of antibiotics; the concerted synthesis of pigments; the concerted production of extracellular enzymes; or the concerted production of virulence factors.

Inhibition of the asexual reproduction of fungi by eugenol and/or derivatives thereof

The invention relates to novel alkaline protease variants. These variants have, when enumerating the alkaline protease from, variations in amino acid position 61, positions 199 and/or 211 and, optionally, at least one modification that contributes to the stabilization of the molecule, said modification preferably being point mutations in positions 3 and/or 4. Particularly preferred are variants S3T/V41/G61A/V199] and S3T/V41/G61A/V1991/L211D ofalkaline protease. The invention also relates to the possible use of these enzymes in diverse technical processes and, in particular, to detergents and cleansers containing these novel alkaline protease variants.
