Description: This exhaustive reference provides an unprecedented, integrated overview of enzyme use in household detergents - from product development and manufacturing to safety and health-related issues. It details the major types of enzymes, structure-function relationships, life cycle analyses, protein-engineering techniques, cleaning mechanisms, and past, present, and future applications, as well as market structure and growth.

Furnishing key literature citations, tables, drawings, and micrographs, Enzymes in Detergency is a stimulating source for physical, surface, colloid, and oil chemists; surfactant scientists; detergent product development and cosmetics chemists and engineers; biochemists; and upper-level undergraduate and graduate students in these disciplines.
