  • Publication number: 20170130170
    Abstract: Dishwashing composition comprising an enzyme preparation, which enzyme preparation comprises enzymes capable of degrading cellulosic material. The enzyme preparation may comprise: a) an Aspergillus fumigatus cellobiohydrolase I; b) an Aspergillus fumigatus cellobiohydrolase II; c) an Aspergillus fumigatus beta-glucosidase or variant thereof; and d) a Penicillium sp. GH61 polypeptide having cellulolytic enhancing activity; or homologs thereof. The dishwashing composition can be used in a method for automatic dishwashing for example in combination with an acidic material or it can be used for cleaning the interior of the dishwashing machine. The addition of a non-pathogenic microorganism, e.g. Bacillus subtilis, to the dishwashing detergent is also suggested.
