Can alkaline protease be used to wash clothes directly?
Oct 21, 2024
Alkaline protease can be used to wash clothes directly, but there are two points to note: 1. Due to the specificity of enzyme preparations, alkaline protease can only decompose protein stains, such as residual milk stains, egg stains, meat stains, blood stains, etc., hydrolyze protein stains into soluble peptide bonds, and then decompose them into amino acids, so that the stains can be easily removed. Therefore, the activity of enzyme preparations is related to temperature, and about 35°C is the most suitable. Too high or too low a temperature will reduce the activity of the enzyme. At the same time, too high a temperature will cause the protein in the blood stains to solidify when heated and will not melt easily. 2. Pre-soak for 20-30 minutes to give the enzyme enough time to decompose the protein stains on the clothes.
