Definitions
- the invention related broadly to encapsulated enzymes and particularly to water soluble encapsulated enzymes which may be combined with a halogen bleach to form an effective bleach/enzyme cleaning composition.
- Enzymes are proteins synthesized by living organisms which can catalyze specific biochemical reactions such as the conversion of starch to sugar (amylase), the hydrolysis of fats to glycerol and fatty acids (lypase) and the hydrolytic breakdown of proteins (protease). It is commonly believed that enzymes are capable of catalyzing reactions only at a limited number of specific sites commonly referred to as "active sites”.
- Certain biological materials such as proteins, lipids and polysaccharides can be difficult to remove from substrates such as dishes, flatware and fabrics as such biological materials are substantially insoluble in traditional cleaning media.
- an enzyme in a cleaning media to catalytically assist in breaking down such materials into insoluble monomeric and/or oligomeric molecules.
- Certain types of enzymes such as amylase, lipase, and protease are known to be particularly useful for such purposes as they can effectively remove such materials from substrates without significantly degrading the substrate being cleaned.
- Halogen bleaches are a well known group of chemical compounds having the ability to remove stains such as those caused by coffee and tea from a substrate. Halogen bleaches eliminate such stains by breaking down the large colored organic molecules which form such stains into smaller colorless molecules.
- halogen bleaches The cleaning actions of enzymes and halogen bleaches are complementary, each affecting different aspects of the soils typically found on dishes, flatware, and fabrics. Accordingly, a superior cleaning composition could be formed by employing both an enzyme and a halogen bleach in a single cleaning composition.
- halogen bleaches tend to instantly deactivate enzymes at concentrations as low as 1 part active halogen per one million parts cleaning media. While such deactivation of enzymes is not fully understood, it is believed that the halogen bleach affects either a change in the structure of the enzyme's active site or a change in the shape of the enzyme such that the enzyme's active site is no longer available as a reactor site.
- the time release coating delayed the release of the enzyme deactivating bleach for a time period sufficient to allow the enzyme to perform its cleaning function before it was deactivated.
- this attempt also met with limited success as it proved virtually impossible to economically prevent premature release of an enzyme deactivating amount of the bleach.
- compositions capable of releasing active enzyme into an aqueous, chlorine bleach-containing media comprising an enzyme core encapsulated with an inner coating of a bleach-neutralizing substance and an outer coating of a time-release substance.
- the encapsulated enzyme may further comprise an initial coating of a time-release substance between the enzyme and the bleach-neutralizing substance to ensure that all chlorine bleach present in the solution has been neutralized by the bleach-neutralizing substance before the enzyme is released.
- a composition capable of releasing active enzyme into an aqueous, chlorine bleach-containing media comprising an enzyme core encapsulated with a time-release substance designed to delay release of the enzyme into solution for a first-time delay, and a bleach-neutralizing substance encapsulated with a time-release substance designed to delay release of the bleach-neutralizing substance into solution for a second-time delay; the first-time delay being longer than the second- time delay so that the bleachneutralizing substance will be released and completely neutralize all chlorine bleach present in the solution before the enzyme is released.
- the bleach-neutralizing substance may be present either as a core material or as an inner coating material on a diluent core.
- the enzyme may be encapsulated with an inner coating of bleach-neutralizing substance between the enzyme and the time-release substance.
- compositions capable of releasing active enzyme into an aqueous, chlorine bleach-containing media comprising an enzyme core encapsulated with a time-release substance, a diluent core encapsulated with an inner coating of a bleach-neutralizing substance and an outer coating of a time-release substance, and a bleach-neutralizing substance core encapsulated with a time-release substance.
- the enzyme core and the bleach-neutralizing substance core may be further encapsulated with an initial coating of a bleach-neutralizing substance between the core and the time-release substance.
- the enzyme core may be coated with the time-release substance so as to delay release of enzyme into solution for a first time delay, and the cores of diluent and bleach-neutralizing substance coated with the time-release substance so as to delay release of diluent and bleach-neutralizing substance into solution for a second time delay; the first time delay being longer than the second time delay so that all bleach-neutralizing substance present as either a core material or a coating material on a diluent core will be released and completely neutralize all chlorine bleach present in the solution before the enzyme is released.
- a cleaning composition particularly effective in warewashing which comprises at least one of the encapsulated enzyme containing compositions described above, a chlorine bleach, and at least one additional detergent component.
- enzymes typically contain a significant portion of an inert filler such as sodium sulfate, sodium chloride, or the like.
- wt-% enzyme refers to the active enzyme and any inert filler employed in combination with the enzyme.
- encapsulation of a mixture of 20 mg enzyme and 60 mg inert filler with an inner coating of 10 mg bleach-neutralizing substance and an outer coating of 10 mg time-release substance results in an encapsulated enzyme composition comprising 80 wt-% enzyme core.
- bleach refers to any chemical agent capable of removing the color from a substrate by oxidation.
- active halogen or “active chlorine” refers to the halogen or chlorine actually present in the compound having a valence of greater than -1.
- compositions capable of releasing active enzyme into an aqueous, chlorine bleach containing media comprising an enzyme core encapsulated with an inner coating of a bleach-neutralizing substance and an outer coating of a time-release substance.
- the encapsulated enzyme may further comprise an initial coating of a time-release substance between the enzyme and the bleach-neutralizing substance to ensure that all chlorine bleach has been neutralized by the bleach-neutralizing substance before the enzyme is released.
- Any enzyme capable of facilitating the removal of biological soil from a substrate without substantially damaging the substrate may be usefully employed in the present invention.
- Such enzymes includes proteases, lipases, amylases, and the like.
- the preferred enzyme or combination of enzymes depends upon the substrate to be cleaned and the types of soil to be removed. For reasons of ease of handling and ease of encapsulation, the enzyme is preferably powdered in form.
- Proteases are those enzymes which attack and break down proteinaceous soils such as meat residue, gravy, and blood. Proteases are classified in EC class 3, subclass 3.4. I have found the EC class 3.4.4 peptide peptido-hydrolases such as subtilopeptidase A (EC 3.4.4.16) to be particularly effective in the cleaning composition of this invention.
- a suitable protease can be purchased from Novo Industries under the mark Esperase®.
- Lipases are those enzymes which attack and break down fatty soils such as cooking oil, grease, and ice cream. Lipases also belong to EC class 3, but are placed in subclass 3.1. I have found the EC class 3.1.1 enzymes such as the glycerol ester hydrolases (EC 3.1.1.3) to be particularly effective in the cleaning composition of this invention.
- a suitable lipase can be purchased from Enzyme Development under the mark Lipase 30,000.
- Amylases are those enzymes which can attack and break down starch, polysaccharide, and cellulosic soils such as potatoes, rice, oatmeal, and grass. Amylases also belong to EC class 3, but are placed in subclass 3.2. I have found the EC 3.2.1 glycoses hydrolases such as alpha-1, 4-glucan-4-glucanohydrolase (EC 3.2.1.1), and alpha-1, 4-glucan maltohydrolase (EC 3.2.1.2) to be particularly effective in the cleaning composition of this invention.
- a suitable amylase can be purchased from Novo Industries under the mark Termamyl®.
- the encapsulated enzyme can comprise from a trace up to about 95 wt-%, based upon the total capsule, enzyme core.
- the capsule preferably comprises about 50 to 80 wt-% enzyme.
- surrounding and protectively encapsulating the enzyme core is an inner coating of a bleach-neutralizing substance which, when released into solution, reduces all active chlorine present in the solution to a form which will not deactivate the enzyme.
- the bleach-neutralizing substance should, of course, be a stable solid at room temperature and be compatible with the enzyme and all other components intended to be combined with the encapsulated enzyme. Further, the bleach-neutralizing substance should not damage the substrate to be cleaned.
- Suitable bleach-neutralizing substances include sulf-oxy acids and salts thereof, hydrogen peroxide producing compounds, sugars, and the like.
- Sulf-oxy acids and the salts thereof are a well-known group of compounds which possess the ability to neutralize chlorine bleaches.
- the alkali metal and ammonium salts of sulf-oxy acids such as ammonium sulfite ((NH4)2SO3), sodium bisulfite (Na2SO3), sodium thiosulfite (Na2S2O3) sodium metabisulfite (Na2S2O3), potassium metabisulfite (K2S2O5), lithium hydrosulfite (Li2S2O4), and the like are preferred.
- Sulf-oxy acids are readily available from a number of suppliers including Allied Corporation under the mark Sulftech®.
- the. preferred chlorine bleach-neutralizing substances are those compounds capable of producing hydrogen peroxide when placed in solution.
- Such compounds include perborates, percarbonates, perphosphates, persulfates, and the like. These compounds are readily available from a number of suppliers including Interox Peroxid-Chemie GmbH and Dupont.
- the preferred hydrogen peroxide producing source is sodium perborate monohydrate available from Interox Peroxid-Chemie GmbH.
- the encapsulated enzyme can comprise about 1 to 95 wt-%, based upon the total capsule, bleach-neutralizing substance.
- the capsule preferably comprises about 10 to 60 wt-%, based upon the total capsule, bleachneutralizing substance.
- surrounding and protectively encapsulating the enzyme core and the first coating of bleach-neutralizing substance is an outer coating of a time-release substance.
- the time-release substance delays release of the bleach-neutralizing substance and the enzyme so that a bleach, used in combination with the capsule, can perform its cleansing function before it is deactivated by the bleach-neutralizing substance.
- the time-release substance should, of course, be compatible with the enzyme, the bleach-neutralizing substance, and all other components intended to be combined therewith. Further, the time-release substance should not damage the substance to be cleaned. Any material meeting these two criteria and capable of delaying the release of substantial amounts of the bleach-neutralizing substance for about 1 to 20 minutes, preferably about 2 to 6 minutes may be employed in the present invention.
- the time-release substance will comprise a high molecular weight semisolid or solid fat, an inorganic solid, a natural or synthetic polymer, or the like.
- the preferred timerelease substances are the natural and synthetic polymers.
- Suitable time-release polymers include: cellulose derivatives such as sodium carboxymethyl cellulose, sodium hydroxyethyl cellulose, ethyl cellulose, hydroxypropyl cellulose, hydroxypropyl methyl cellulose, nitro cellulose, cellulose acetate phthalate, and hydroxypropyl methyl cellulose phthalate; gelatin; starch; proteins; fatty acids; waxes (including paraffin and microcrystalline waxes); polyacrylamide; polyacrylic acid; polyvinyl alcohol; polyethylene glycol, etc.
- the use of these and other similar time-release substances including selection of an appropri ate compound for a particular use, is well within the skill of one of ordinary skill in the art.
- the preferred time-release substance is carboxymethyl cellulose and salts thereof.
- Suitable sodium carboxymethyl cellulose is available from a number of suppliers, including Hercules, Inc., under the mark CMC-CLT®.
- the encapsulated enzyme can comprise about 1-50 wt-%, based upon the total capsule, time-release substance.
- the preferred wt-% depends upon the particular substance employed and how long the bleach is to be allowed to function before it is deactivated by the bleach-neutralizing substance. For use in ware and fabric washing, I have found that about 1-20 wt-%, based upon the total capsule, time-release substance is typically satisfactory.
- the encapsulated enzyme can comprise an initial coating of a time-release substance between the enzyme core and the bleach-neutralizing substance to ensure that all of the active chlorine in solution has been neutralized by the bleach-neutralizing substance before the enzyme is released.
- time-release substance can comprise any of the time-release substances previously described.
- initial coating required to ensure that all active chlorine has been deactivated before the enzyme is released depends upon the amounts and type of bleach-neutralizing substance and initial coating material employed. However, I have found that about 0.5 to 5 wt-%, based upon the total capsule, initial coating material is typically sufficient to prevent premature release.
- composition which comprises an enzyme encapsulated in a time-release substance designed to delay release of the enzyme into solution for a first-time delay, and a bleach-neutralizing substance encapsulated in a time-release substance designed to delay release of the bleach-neutralizing substance into solution for a second-time delay; the first-time delay being longer than the second- time delay so that the bleach-neutralizing substance will be released and completely neutralize all active chlorine present in the solution before the enzyme is released.

- the enzyme may be encapsulated with an inner coating of a bleach-neutralizing substance between the enzyme and the time-release substance. Still further, the enzyme may be initially encapsulated with a time-release substance.
- a diluent core may be employed as a carrier for bleach-neutralizing substance wherein the bleach-neutralizing substance is coated onto the diluent. This is particularly useful when the bleach-neutralizing substance does not readily form substantially uniform granules.
- the use of a diluent core allows both enzyme and diluent to be simultaneously coated with bleach-neutralizing substance, thereby simplifying manufacture.
