Description

LAUNDRY COMPOSITION COMPRISING SPORES FIELD OF THE INVENTION The present invention is in the field of laundry compositions. In particular, it is directed to a concentrated laundry composition comprising bacterial spores. It is also related to a method of doing laundry by diluting the concentrated composition. The composition and method of the invention provide sustained reduction and/or prevention of malodor on fabrics. BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION Malodor on fabrics even after they have been washed seem to be a recurring problem. One of the objectives of the present invention is to provide a product that ameliorate malodors of fabrics. Bacterial endospores, hereafter referred to as ‘spores’, have been reported to offer anti- malodor benefits in laundry compositions. However, this presents a challenge of keeping the spores stable and in a dormant state on storage without impacting their ability to germinate and grow once the product has been used. For example, interventions to improve spore storage stability come with a risk that they will slow down subsequent germination and/or growth. One of the objectives of the present invention is to provide a product in which the spores are stable in product but are quick to germinate when the product is used. Sometimes it is desirable to have the compositions in concentrated form to reduce packaging and transport costs and to reduce environmental impact. The concentrate should be stable on storage and it should also be stable when diluted in water of different hardness. Thus, another objective of the present invention is to provide a composition that is stable as a concentrate (physical & chemical stability) and does not become unstable when diluted. SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION According to the first aspect of the present, there is provided a concentrated laundry composition. The concentrated laundry composition is dilutable in water to form a liquid laundry detergent composition. The concentrated composition comprises: a) from 10 to 85% by weight of surfactant, preferably from 22 to 80%; b) a rheology modifier, preferably from 5 to 20% by weight of the composition; and c) from about 1x10² to about 1x10⁹ CFU/g of the composition of bacterial spores. According to the second and third aspects of the invention, there is provided a method of doing laundry by diluting the concentrated composition of the invention to make a ready to use detergent. The method of the invention provides sustained malodor removal and/or malodor prevention from fabrics over an extended period of time. The elements of the invention described in relation to the first aspect of the invention apply mutatis mutandis to the other aspects of the invention. DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION The present invention encompasses a concentrated laundry composition to be diluted before use. The composition provides biotics benefits, in particular it provides long-lasting malodor reduction and/or prevention. A preferred composition according to the invention comprises: a) from 22 to 80% by weight of surfactant; b) from 5 to 20% by weight of a rheology modifier; and c) from about 1x10² to about 1x10⁹ CFU/g of the composition of bacterial spores. A preferred composition according to the invention comprises: a) from 25 to 75% by weight of surfactant; b) from 5 to 10% by weight of a grafted copolymer of an acrylic polymer and fatty alcohol alkoxylates, or its salts, or a mixture thereof; and c) from about 1x10² to about 1x10⁹ CFU/g of the composition of bacterial spores. The present invention also encompasses a method of doing laundry using the concentrated composition of the invention, the method requires the dilution of the concentrated to make a diluted laundry detergent. Preferably, the method comprises the step of contacting a fabric with a washing liquor comprising at least 1x10² CFU/liter of the liquor, preferably from about 1x10² to about 1x10⁸ CFU/liter of the liquor, preferably from about 1x10⁴ to about 1x10⁷ CFU/liter of the liquor, of bacterial spores, preferably Bacillus spores. As used herein, the articles “a” and “an” when used in a claim, are understood to mean one or more of what is claimed or described. As used herein, the terms “include,” “includes,” and “including” are meant to be non-limiting. The compositions of the present disclosure can comprise, consist essentially of, or consist of, the components of the present disclosure. All percentages, ratios and proportions used herein are by weight percent of the composition, unless otherwise specified. All average values are calculated “by weight” of the composition, unless otherwise expressly indicated. All ratios are calculated as a weight/weight level, unless otherwise specified. All measurements are performed at 25°C unless otherwise specified. Unless otherwise noted, all component or composition levels are in reference to the active portion of that component or composition, and are exclusive of impurities, for example, residual solvents or by-products, which may be present in commercially available sources of such components or compositions.

The present disclosure relates to a concentrated laundry composition. The “concentrated laundry composition” is herein sometimes referred as “the composition of the invention”. The composition is liquid form. The composition may include from about 15% to about 70%, by weight of the composition, of water. The pH of the composition may be optimized to facilitate bacterial spores stability. The composition may be in the form of a unitized dose article, such as a pouch. Such pouches typically include a water-soluble film, such as a polyvinyl alcohol water-soluble film, that at least partially encapsulates a composition. Suitable films are available from MonoSol, LLC (Indiana, USA). The composition can be encapsulated in a single or multi-compartment pouch. A multi-compartment pouch may have at least two, at least three, or at least four compartments. A multi-compartmented pouch may include compartments that are side-by-side and/or superposed. Pouched compositions may have relatively low amounts of water, for example less than about 20%, or less than about 15%, or less than about 12%, or less than about 10%, or less than about 8%, by weight of the detergent composition, of water. Bacterial spores The composition of the invention comprises from about 1x10² to about 1x10⁹ CFU/g, preferably from 1x10³ to about 1x10⁷ CFU/g and more preferably from 1x10⁴ to about 1x10⁷ CFU/g of the composition of Bacillus spores. The bacterial spores for use herein: i) are capable of surviving the temperatures found in a laundry process; ii) are fabric substantive; and iii) have the ability to excrete enzymes. The spores have the ability to germinate and to form cells after the concentrated composition has been diluted and used in a laundry process. The spores can be delivered in liquid or solid form. Preferably, the spores are in solid form. Some gram-positive bacteria have a two-stage lifecycle in which growing bacteria under certain conditions such as in response to nutritional deprivation can undergo an elaborate developmental program leading to spores or endospores formation. The bacterial spores are protected by a coat consisting of about 60 different proteins assembled as a biochemically complex structure with intriguing morphological and mechanical properties. The protein coat is considered a static structure that provides rigidity and mainly acting as a sieve to exclude exogenous large toxic molecules, such as lytic enzymes. Spores play critical roles in long term survival of the species because they are highly resistant to extreme environmental conditions. Spores are also capable of remaining metabolically dormant for years. Methods for obtaining bacterial spores from vegetative cells are well known in the field. In some examples, vegetative bacterial cells are grown in liquid medium. Beginning in the late logarithmic growth phase or early stationary growth phase, the bacteria may begin to sporulate. When the bacteria have finished sporulating, the spores may be obtained from the medium, by using centrifugation for example. Various methods may be used to kill or remove any remaining vegetative cells. Various methods may be used to purify the spores from cellular debris and/or other materials or substances. Bacterial spores may be differentiated from vegetative cells using a variety of techniques, like phase-contrast microscopy, automated scanning microscopy, high resolution atomic force microscopy or tolerance to heat, for example. Because bacterial spores are generally environmentally-tolerant structures that are metabolically inert or dormant, they are readily chosen to be used in commercial microbial products. Despite their ruggedness and extreme longevity, spores can rapidly respond to the presence of small specific molecules known as germinants that signal favorable conditions for breaking dormancy through germination, an initial step in the process of completing the lifecycle by returning to vegetative bacteria. For example, the commercial microbial products may be designed to be dispersed into an environment where the spores encounter the germinants present in the environment to germinate into vegetative cells and perform an intended function. A variety of different bacteria may form spores. Bacteria from any of these groups may be used in the compositions, methods, and kits disclosed herein.

Pro-perfume materials The composition of the present disclosure may comprises pro-perfume materials. Sometimes referred to as pro-fragrances or fragrance precursors. Pro-perfume materials typically comprise a covalent bond between a carrier and one or more perfume raw material(s) (PRM(s)). Once the spores germinate, the one or more PRMs are then released upon exposure to enzymes excreted by the bacteria. Pro-perfume materials can provide extended PRMs release profiles, resulting in long-lasting freshness benefits. Furthermore, because the total amount of PRMs is not released or otherwise available at one time, the olfactory impact of the PRMs is moderated. In compositions of the present invention, such release profiles can mitigate what might otherwise be experienced as an overpowering smell, due to the relatively high levels of fragrance. The pro-perfume material of the composition of the present invention comprises PRM. The pro-perfume material is capable of releasing the PRM when exposed to the enzymes released by the bacteria. The pro-perfume material may gradually release the PRM when the spores germinate and the bacteria contained in the spore excrete enzymes. The gemination of the spores is not triggered during product storage but only during and after the product is used. Good conditions for spore germination are for example found during the wearing of treated fabrics, in particular when the body of the user is sweating. Pro-perfume materials for use herein can be selected from the group consisting of glycosides, phosphate acid esters, amino-acid derivatives and carboxylic acid derivatives and mixtures thereof.
