  • Publication number: 20200299618
    Abstract: The present invention provides consumer products comprising a serine protease variant, more specifically subtilisin variants produced there from. Specifically, the present invention provides consumer products comprising a serine protease variant, more specifically a subtilisin variant having one or more substitutions as compared to a reference serine protease. In addition, the present invention provides methods of making such compositions and methods of treating surfaces, particularly fabric surfaces comprising contacting a surface with an aqueous liquor comprising a serine protease variant, more specifically subtilisin variants and an adjunct material.

  • Publication number: 20190276813
    Abstract: The present invention is in the field of automatic dishwashing detergent compositions, as well as methods of making and using same. In particular, it relates to an automatic dishwashing detergent composition comprising a new protease. The automatic dishwashing detergent composition provides improved cleaning and finishing. In particular the composition of the invention provides better proteinaceous removal at the same level of other proteases available in the market. This also alternatively allows for the use of a lower level of the protease of the invention and therefore a more cost effective composition.
