- Abstract
The article describes the progress in enzyme engineering for more sustainable detergents. Enzymes are biodegradable and effective at low temperatures, but they can be affected by other ingredients. Through technical modifications of the proteins, enzymes can be further developed and stabilized in the laboratory. It is discussed that chemical stabilizers can be problematic and alternative solutions should be explored. The current advancements in protein engineering enable sustainable detergents without chemical stabilizers and provide improved cleaning performance at low temperatures. Nouryon is a globally leading specialty chemicals manufacturer that offers solutions for various industries.
