Biological enzymes that are used as laundry detergents
Detergent enzymes are biological enzymes that are used with detergents. They catalyze the reaction between stains and the water solution, thus aiding stain removal and improving efficiency.[1] Laundry detergent enzymes are the largest application of industrial enzymes.[2]
They can be a part of both liquid and powder detergents.
