Description: DETERGENT COMPOSITIONS COMPRISING A SPECIFIC CELLULASE AND A HYDROPHOBIC BLEACH ACTIVATOR TECHNICAL FIELD The present invention relates to a granular bleach-containing laundry detergent composition comprising a specific cellulase and a hydrophobic bleach activator. BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION Detergent compositions include nowadays a complex combination of active ingredients which fulfill certain specific needs : a surfactant system, enzymes providing cleaning and fabric care benefits, bleaching agents, a builder system, suds suppressors, soil-suspending agents, soil-release agents, optical bhghteners, softening agents, dispersants, dye transfer inhibition compounds, abrasives, bactericides, perfumes, and their overall performance has indeed improved over the years. In particular, current detergent formulations generally include detergent enzymes and more specifically cellulases. The activity of cellulase is one in which cellulosic fibres or substrates are hydrolysed by the cellulase and depending on the particular function of the cellulase, which can be endo- or exo- cellulase and the respective hemicellulases. The cellulose structures are depolymerized or cleaved into smaller and thereby more soluble or dispersible fractions. This activity in particular on fabrics provides a cleaning, rejuvenation, softening and generally improved handfeel characteristics to the fabric structure. The efficiency of cellulytic enzymes, i e cellulases, in terms of textile cleaning and harshness-reducing agent for fabrics has been recognized for some time, Wo 89/09259, GB-A-2,075,028,

least one non-catalytic domain attached to a catalytic domain and being capable of colour clarification wherein at least one of the cellulase components is a single component Said enzymatic detergent composition is capable of providing both sufficient colour clarification and particulate soil removal which, after a limited number of washing cycles, neither damage nor partly degrade the cellulose-containing fabric Suitable specific cellulases are the EGIII cellulases from Tπchoderma longibrachiatum described in WO94/21801 , Genencor, published September 29, 1994 Enzymes and in particular cellulases, are well known in the art to assist in the removal of certain stains/soils from fabrics, however they have not proven to be very effective for all types of stains/soils It has also long been known that bleaching agents are effective for stain and/or soil removal from fabrics In particular laundry detergent compositions can currently comprise hydrophobic bleach activators and provide good greasy/oily stains/soils removal benefits It is therefore an object of the present invention to provide a granular bleach-containing laundry detergent composition providing enhance overall cleaning, superior cleaning on a wide range of types of stains/soils and improved whiteness performance benefits It has been surprisingly found that the combination of specific cellulase with hydrophobic bleach activator demonstrates enhanced overall cleaning, superior cleaning on a wider range of stains/soils and improved whiteness performance benefits The combination of the special cellulolytic enzyme with the hydrophobic bleach activator demonstrates optimum and synergistic performance from the enzymatic and bleach technologies Indeed the bleach containing laundry detergent

designed such that the optimal pH, bleach or chelant stability, catalytic activity and the like, of the enzyme variant is tailored to suit the particular cleaning application In particular, attention should be focused on ammo acids sensitive to oxidation in the case of bleach stability and on surface charges for the surfactant compatibility The isoelectnc point of such enzymes may be modified by the substitution of some charged ammo acids, e g an increase in isoelectnc point may help to improve compatibility with anionic surfactants. The stability of the enzymes may be further enhanced by the creation of e g additional salt bridges and enforcing calcium binding sites to increase chelant stability.

surface charges for the surfactant compatibility The isoelectnc point of such enzymes may be modified by the substitution of some charged ammo acids, e g an increase in isoelectnc point may help to improve compatibility with anionic surfactants The stability of the enzymes may be further enhanced by the creation of e g additional salt bridges and enforcing calcium binding sites to increase chelant stability Special attention must be paid to the cellulases as most of the cellulases have separate binding domains (CBD) Properties of such enzymes can be altered by modifications in these domains Said enzymes are normally incorporated in the detergent composition at levels from 0 0001 % to 2% of pure enzyme by weight of the detergent composition The enzymes can be added as separate

backbone are interconnected to a certain degree, these links can be of chemical or physical nature, possibly with active groups n the backbone or on branches, cross-linked polymers have been described in the Journal of Polymer Science, volume 22, pages 1035-1039 In one embodiment, the cross-linked polymers are made in such a way that they form a three-dimensional rigid structure, which can entrap dyes in the pores formed by the three-dimensional structure In another embodiment, the cross- linked polymers entrap the dyes by swelling Such cross-linked polymers are described in the co-pending patent application 94870213 9 Method of washing The compositions of the invention may be used in essentially any washing or cleaning methods, including soaking methods, pre-treatment methods and methods with rinsing steps for which a separate rinse aid composition may be added. The process described herein comprises contacting fabrics with a laundering solution in the usual manner and exemplified hereunder. The process of the invention is conveniently carried out in the course of the cleaning process. The method of cleaning is preferably carried out at 5°C to 95°C, especially between 10°C and 60°C. The pH of the treatment solution is preferably from 7 to 12. The following examples are meant to exemplify compositions of the present invention, but are not necessarily meant to limit or otherwise define the scope of the invention. In the detergent compositions, the enzymes levels are expressed by pure enzyme by weight of the total composition and unless otherwise specified, the detergent ingredients are expressed by weight of the total compositions.
