Definitions

  • the present invention relates to aqueous cleaning compositions that are phase stable and having a long time enzyme activity, to a method of manufacture and the use thereof
  • soils such as carbohydrate, proteins, blood and water hardness soils, food oil soils, fat soils and other soils.
  • soils can arise from the manufacture of both liquid and solid residences/contaminants.
  • Grease soils and residue soils such as proteins, fats, blood and oils, especially when dried, can be hard to remove soil.
  • carbohydrate soils such as cellulosic, monosaccharides, disaccharides, oligosaccharides, starches, gums and other complex materials, when dried, can form tough, hard to remove soils, particularly when combined with other soil components such as proteins, blood, fats, oils, minerals, and others. The removal of such soils and residues, can be a significant problem.
  • Clean out of place systems (COP) cleaning techniques are a specific cleaning regimen adapted for removing soils from exterior surfaces of a wide variety of parts, such as ceramic surfaces, metallic surfaces, walls, wash tanks, soaking vessels, mop buckets, holding tanks, scrub sinks, vehicle parts washers, non-continuous batch washers and systems, ceilings, external parts of production machinery and the like.
  • parts such as ceramic surfaces, metallic surfaces, walls, wash tanks, soaking vessels, mop buckets, holding tanks, scrub sinks, vehicle parts washers, non-continuous batch washers and systems, ceilings, external parts of production machinery and the like.
  • Often clean out of place methods can involve a first rinse, the application of the cleaning solutions, and a second rinse with potable water followed by resumed operations.
  • the process can also include any other contacting step in which a rinse, acidic or basic functional fluid, solvent or other cleaning component such as hot water, cold water, etc. can be contacted with the equipment at any step during the process.
  • a rinse, acidic or basic functional fluid, solvent or other cleaning component such as hot water, cold water, etc.
  • Conventional clean in place as well as clean out of place methods require high temperatures, up to about 80° C. In production rooms, the elevated water temperature currently used for that kind of cleaning processes is in the range of about 40° C to about 60° C.
  • Conventional clean out of place techniques (COP) thus require the consumption of large amounts of energy.
  • manual or automatic instrument reprocessing requires a specific cleaning regimen and cleaning compositions adapted for removing soils from surfaces.
  • Cleaning processes at elevated temperatures in the range of about 40° C to about 60° C requires cleaning composition that are not corrosive to the metallic surface to be cleaned as well as doesn’t affect or being aggressive to plastic parts, like plastic seals.
  • the object addressed by the present invention is to provide an aqueous detergent composition for removing soils such as proteins, fats and blood having no phase separation at elevated temperatures, an increased metal and plastic material compatibility, that can be used for example in removing soil from a surface to be cleaned, preferably in a clean-out-of-place systems (COP) or in a clean-in-place system (CIP) or in manual or automatic instrument reprocessing, especially for cleaning endoscopes.

Up to 90° C can be reached in the cleaning apparatus at the disinfection step.
  • Protease is stable in a water solution at temperatures up to about 43° C. Increasing the temperature of a protease-water solution to about 45° C shows a decrease of protease activity in a protease-water solution. It was surprisingly found that the decrease of protease activity at temperatures at about 45° C and above, such as > 50° C to about ⁇ 60 °C is significant less compared with a protease water-solution.
  • the present aqueous detergent composition allows an effective cleaning and removing soil from hard and/or soft surfaces at elevated temperature of about > 45° C to about ⁇ 60 °C without significant loss of the protease activity. The further advantage is that at temperatures of about > 45° C to about ⁇ 60 °C bacteria are destroyed.
