Abstract
Abstract An efficient, performance-predictive, analytical method for evaluating the performance of cellulases preparations for use in detergent compositions, is disclosed. The method measures the removal by cellulase of a radiolabelled substituted cellulosic material, which is deposited onto a fabric substrate. The substituted cellulosic material is preferably sodium carboxymethyl-cellulase radiolabelled with Carbon 14.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 8
Claim 1
Independent Claim
64 words
A method for evaluating the performance of cellulase preparations for use in detergent compositions, comprising the steps of : - depositing a radiolabelled substituted cellulosic material onto a fabric substrate. - washing said fabric substrate with a composition containing the cellulase preparation to be evaluated. - determining, by radioactivity measurement, the amount of substituted cellulosic material removed from said fabric substrate, by the cellulase.
Claim 2
Independent Claim
64 words
A method for evaluating the performance of cellulase preparations for use in detergent compositions, comprising the steps of : - depositing a radiolabelled substituted cellulosic material onto a fabric substrate. - washing said fabric substrate with a composition containing the cellulase preparation to be evaluated. - determining, by radioactivity measurement, the amount of substituted cellulosic material removed from said fabric substrate, by the cellulase.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
19 words
The method of claim 1 wherein the composition containing the cellulase preparation to be evaluated is a detergent composition.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
13 words
The method of claim 1 wherein the substituted cellulosic material is carboxymethyl cellulose.,
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
13 words
The method of claim 1 wherein the fabric substrate is a cellulosic fabric.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
15 words
The method of claim 1 wherein the substituted cellulosic material is labelled with carbon 14.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim
22 words
The method of claim 5 wherein the substituted cellulosic material is carboxy methyl cellulose labelled by carbon 14 on the carboxy groups.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim
22 words
The method of claim 1 wherein the radioactivity measurement to determine the removed amount of substituted cellulosic material, utilizes scintillation counting techniques.
