Detergent compositions containing cellulase compositions deficient in CBH I type components

摘要

Disclosed are cellulase compositions containing one or more endoglucanase components and less than about 5 weight percent of CBH I type components. When incorporated into detergent compositions and used in acidic, neutral, or alkaline washing media, such cellulase compositions impart color retention/restoration properties as well as improved softening properties to cotton-containing fabrics. Additionally, such compositions impart reduced strength loss to cotton-containing fabrics as compared to cellulase compositions containing greater amounts of CBH I type components.
