Definitions

• anionic surfactants useful herein are disclosed in U.S. Patent No. 4,285,841, Barrat et al, issued August 25, 1981, and in U.S. Patent No. 3,919,678, Laughlin et al, issued December 30, 1975, both incorporated herein by reference.
• Useful anionic surfactants include the water-soluble salts, particularly the alkali metal, ammonium and alkylolammonium (e.g., monoethanolammonium or triethanolammonium) salts, of organic sulfuric reaction products having in their molecular structure an alkyl group containing from about 10 to about 20 carbon atoms and a sulfonic acid or sulfuric acid ester group.
• water-soluble salts particularly the alkali metal, ammonium and alkylolammonium (e.g., monoethanolammonium or triethanolammonium) salts, of organic sulfuric reaction products having in their molecular structure an alkyl group containing from about 10 to about 20 carbon atoms and a sulfonic acid or sulfuric acid ester group.
• a polyalkylene-oxide chain joining the hydrophobic moiety and the polysaccharide moiety.
• the preferred alkyleneoxide is ethylene oxide.
• Typical hydrophobic groups include alkyl groups, either saturated or unsaturated, branched or unbranched containing from about 8 to about 18, preferably from about 10 to about 16, carbon atoms.
• the alkyl group is a straight chain saturated alkyl group.
• the alkyl group can contain up to about 3 hydroxy groups and/or the polyalkyleneoxide chain can contain up to about 10, preferably less than 5, alkyleneoxide moieties.
• One of the aliphatic substituents contains at least about 8 carbon atoms, typically from about 8 to about 18 carbon atoms, and at least one contains an anionic water-solubilizing group, e.g., carboxy, sulfonate, sulfate. See U.S. Patent No. 3,929,678 to Laughlin et al., issued December 30, 1975 at column 19, lines 18-35 for examples of ampholytic surfactants.
• Kymene 557LX® which are epichlorohyd ⁇ n adducts of polyamide-polyamines which are the reaction products of diethylenet ⁇ amme and adipic acid.
• Other suitable materials are those marketed by Hercules under the tradenames Reten® and Delsette®> and by Sandoz under the tradename Cartaretm®- These polyamide-polyamine materials are marketed m the form of aqueous suspensions of the polymeric material containing, for example, about 12.5% by weight of solids.
• Enzyme stabilization techniques are disclosed and exemplified in U.S. 3,600,319, August 17, 1971, Gedge et al, EP 199,405 and EP 200,586, October 29, 1986, Venegas. Enzyme stabilization systems are also described, for example, in U.S. 3,519,570. A useful Bacillus, sp. AC13 giving proteases, xylanases and cellulases, is described m WO 9401532 A to Novo
• Mannans are polysaccharides having a backbone composed of ⁇ -1,4- linked mannose; glucomannans are polysaccharides having a backbone or more or less regularly alternating ⁇ -1,4 linked mannose and glucose; galactomannans and galactoglucomannans are mannans and glucomannans with ⁇ -1,6 linked galactose sidebranches. These compounds may be acetylated. The degradation of galactomannans and galactoglucomannans is facilitated by full or partial removal of the galactose sidebranches.
• Highly preferred lipases are the D96L polytic enzyme variant of the native lipase derived from Humicola lanuginosa as described in US Serial No. 08/341,826.
• D native lipase ex Humicola lanuginosa aspartic acid
• L Leucme
• Lipase enzyme is incorporated into the composition m accordance with the invention at a level of from 50 LU to 8500 LU per liter wash solution
• the variant D96L is present at a level of from 100 LU to 7500 LU per liter of wash solution More preferably at a level of from 150 LU to 5000 LU per liter of wash solution
• Still other useful dispersing agents include the maleic/acrylic/vinyl alcohol terpolymers. Such materials are also disclosed in EP 193,360, including, for example, the 45/45/10 terpolymer of acrylic/maleic/vinyl alcohol.
• Other polymeric materials which can be included are polypropylene glycol (PPG), propylene glycol (PG), and polyethylene glycol (PEG). PEG can exhibit dispersing agent performance as well as act as a clay soil removal-antiredeposition agent. Typical molecular weight ranges for these purposes range from about 500 to about 100,000, preferably from about 1,000 to about 50,000, more preferably from about 1,500 to about 10,000.
• Polyaspartate and polyglutamate dispersing agents may also be used, especially in conjunction with zeolite builders. Dispersing agents such as polyaspartate preferably have a molecular weight (avg.) of about 10,000.
