Lipase From Thermoalkalophilic Pseudomonas species as an Additive in Potential Laundry Detergent Formulations
Lipase isolated from a thermoalkalophilic Pseudomonas species was used as additive to improve the degree of olive oil removal from cotton fabric in the presence of surfactants. The lipase used in this study was found to be more effective with non ionic surfactants as compared to ionic surfactants. I...

| description | Lipase isolated from a thermoalkalophilic Pseudomonas species was used as additive to improve the degree of olive oil removal from cotton fabric in the presence of surfactants. The lipase used in this study was found to be more effective with non ionic surfactants as compared to ionic surfactants. In terms of stability, there was no decrease in activity found in the presence of Tween 85, Span 80 and Span 20. Lipase from Pseudomonas species was most active in the presence of Tween 85, Span 80 and Span 20. The application of lipase from Pseudomonas species as an additive in the formulation containing Span 80 has improved oil removal by 36% using the washing system consisting 5 U/mL lipase, at 70 °C for 20 min and 0.8% of Span 80 as surfactant. Considering that lipase from Pseudomonas species is stable in high pH and temperatures in the presence of various surfactants, therefore it is suitable to be incorporated as additives in potential detergent formulations. |
