Abstract: Concentrated detergent composition comprising less than 5% wt. water, anionic surfactant, and a non-aqueous solvent, wherein the anionic surfactant comprises an anionic surfactant with a monoisopropylamine (MIPA) and/or triisopropanolamine (TIPA) counterion, said composition comprising linear alkylbenzene sulphonate.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a hard surface cleaning composition. There is a need for improved cleaning compositions for providing antimicrobial benefit in addition to cleaning benefit. The inventors have found that an aqueous composition comprising 0.01 to 20% by weight alkene amide; 0.01 to 20% by weight glycol ether of formula (I): R1O(R2O)nR3; where: —R1 is a linear or branched alkyl or phenyl group having 1 to 8 carbon atoms; —R2 is ethyl or isopropyl; —n is 1,2,3; —R3 is hydrogen or a linear or branched alkyl or phenyl group having 1 to 10 carbon atoms; 0.1 to 50% by weight surfactant; and at least 10% by weight water, provides significant antimicrobial benefit.

Abstract: A malodour reducing spray composition comprising: a. 0.1 to 15 wt. % emollient; b. 0.5 to 15 wt. % emulsifier; and c. Water.

Abstract: A malodour reducing spray composition comprising: a. a prebiotic comprising at least one saccharide unit selected form: galactose, galacturonic, mannuronic, guluronic, glucan, glucose and combinations thereof; and b. water.

Abstract: The present invention provides a detergent composition for use in a water-utilizing appliance, that allows for selection of an enhanced mode of operation of the appliance, based on the detection of a marker molecule in the solution of the detergent composition, where the enhanced mode comprises treatment of waste water generated during use of the appliance. The present invention also provides a method of selecting an enhanced mode of operation in a washing machine including a sensor assembly for detecting the presence of a marker molecule in a solution of the detergent composition.
