AUTOMATIC DISHWASHING DETERGENT COMPOSITION

Abstract
A phosphate-free automatic dishwashing cleaning composition including an organic complexing agent and a new protease.
Description
FIELD OF THE INVENTION

The present invention is in the field of detergents. In particular, it relates to a phosphate-free automatic dishwashing detergent composition comprising a new protease. The composition provides improved cleaning under a plurality of conditions versus compositions comprising conventional proteases.


BACKGROUND OF INVENTION

There is a permanent desire to improve the performance of automatic dishwashing compositions, their environmental profile and to reduce the energy required by the automatic dishwashing process.


Due to environmental concerns phosphate is being replaced by biodegradable complexing agents. These complexing agents are usually strong builders and can negatively affect the stability of enzymes, in particular the strong complexing agents can negatively affect proteases by extracting the central calcium metal ion of the active site of the protease. The proteases can be affected in product and/or in-use. They can be more affected under overbuilt conditions, i.e., when a composition comprises high level of complexing agent and the composition is used in soft water because there will be more free builder to complex with the central calcium metal ion of the active site of the protease.


Automatic dishwashing compositions can be designed to have optimum performance under certain in-use conditions, for example a composition can be designed to have optimum performance in a soft water cycle, however a composition that has optimum performance in soft water might not have optimum performance in a hard water cycle and vice versa.


The object of the present invention is to provide a phosphate-free automatic dishwashing composition that provides better cleaning under a plurality of conditions, including overbuilt conditions.


SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

According to the first aspect of the present invention, there is provided a phosphate-free automatic dishwashing cleaning composition. The composition comprises an organic complexing agent and a novel protease. The composition presents improved performance even when soft water is used in the automatic dishwashing process.


According to the second, third and fourth aspects of the invention there are provided methods of automatic dishwashing, involving soft water cycles, long cycles and high temperature cycles, respectively.


The elements of the composition of the invention described in connexion with 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 an automatic dishwashing cleaning composition. The composition is phosphate-free and comprises an organic complexing agent and a protease. The composition presents improved stability and delivers improved cleaning versus cleaning compositions comprising conventional proteases under a plurality of conditions. The invention also encompasses methods of automatic dishwashing with soft water. The invention also encompasses methods of automatic dishwashing, involving long cycles and/or high temperatures.


The protease of the composition of the invention is herein sometimes referred to as “the protease of the invention”. The protease having SEQ ID NO:1 is herein sometimes referred to as “the parent protease”.


The relatedness between two amino acid sequences or between two nucleotide sequences is described by the parameter “sequence identity”.


The term “variant” means a protease comprising a mutation, i.e., a substitution, insertion, and/or deletion, at one or more (e.g., several) positions relative to the parent protease of SEQ ID NO:1. A substitution means replacement of the amino acid occupying a position with a different amino acid; a deletion means removal of the amino acid occupying a position; and an insertion means adding an amino acid adjacent to and immediately following the amino acid occupying a position. The variants of the present invention have at least 80%, preferably at least 85%, more preferably at least 90%, more preferably at least 95% and especially at least 97% identity with the protease of SEQ ID NO: 1.


The term “wild-type” protease means a protease expressed by a naturally occurring microorganism, such as a bacterium, yeast, or filamentous fungus found in nature.


Enzyme Related Terminology
Nomenclature for Amino Acid Modifications

In describing enzyme variants herein, the following nomenclature is used for ease of reference: Original amino acid(s):position(s):substituted amino acid(s).


According to this nomenclature, for instance the substitution of glutamic acid for glycine in position 195 is shown as G195E. A deletion of glycine in the same position is shown as G195*, and insertion of an additional amino acid residue such as lysine is shown as G195GK. Where a specific enzyme contains a “deletion” in comparison with other enzyme and an insertion is made in such a position this is indicated as *36D for insertion of an aspartic acid in position 36. Multiple mutations are separated by pluses, i.e.: S99G+V102N, representing mutations in positions 99 and 102 substituting serine and valine for glycine and asparagine, respectively. Where the amino acid in a position (e.g. 102) may be substituted by another amino acid selected from a group of amino acids, e.g. the group consisting of N and I, this will be indicated by V102N/I.


In all cases, the accepted IUPAC single letter or triple letter amino acid abbreviation is employed.


Protease Amino Acid Numbering

The numbering used in this patent is the BPN′ numbering system which is commonly used in the art. An alternative numbering scheme is numbering the specific amino acid sequence of the protease (GG36) listed as SEQ ID NO:1. For convenience the two different numbering schemes of two variant proteases for use in automatic dishwashing detergent compositions of the invention are compared below in Table 1:

Amino Acid Identity

The relatedness between two amino acid sequences is described by the parameter “identity”. For purposes of the present invention, the alignment of two amino acid sequences is determined by using the Needle program from the EMBOSS package (http://emboss.org) version 2.8.0. The Needle program implements the global alignment algorithm described in Needleman, S. B. and Wunsch, C. D. (1970) J. Mol. Biol. 48, 443-453. The substitution matrix used is BLOSUM62, gap opening penalty is 10, and gap extension penalty is 0.5.


The degree of identity between an amino acid sequence of an enzyme used herein (“invention sequence”) and a different amino acid sequence (“foreign sequence”) is calculated as the number of exact matches in an alignment of the two sequences, divided by the length of the “invention sequence” or the length of the “foreign sequence”, whichever is the shortest. The result is expressed in percent identity. An exact match occurs when the “invention sequence” and the “foreign sequence” have identical amino acid residues in the same positions of the overlap. The length of a sequence is the number of amino acid residues in the sequence.


The term “succinate based compound” and “succinic acid based compound” are used interchangeably herein.


As used herein, articles such as “a” and “an” when used in a claim, are understood to mean one or more of what is claimed or described.


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.


All percentages and ratios are calculated by weight unless otherwise indicated. All percentages and ratios are calculated based on the total composition unless otherwise indicated.

In order to determine if a polymer is a dispersant polymer within the meaning of the invention, the following calcium binding-capacity determination is conducted in accordance with the following instructions:


Calcium Binding Capacity Test Method

The calcium binding capacity referred to herein is determined via titration using a pH/ion meter, such as the Meettler Toledo SevenMulti™ bench top meter and a PerfectION™ comb Ca combination electrode. To measure the binding capacity a heating and stirring device suitable for beakers or tergotometer pots is set to 25° C., and the ion electrode with meter are calibrated according to the manufacturer's instructions. The standard concentrations for the electrode calibration should bracket the test concentration and should be measured at 25° C. A stock solution of 1000 mg/g of Ca is prepared by adding 3.67 g of CaCl2-2H2O into 1 L of deionised water, then dilutions are carried out to prepare three working solutions of 100 mL each, respectively comprising 100 mg/g, 10 mg/g, and 1 mg/g concentrations of Calcium. The 100 mg Ca/g working solution is used as the initial concentration during the titration, which is conducted at 25° C. The ionic strength of each working solution is adjusted by adding 2.5 g/L of NaCl to each. The 100 mL of 100 mg Ca/g working solution is heated and stirred until it reaches 25° C. The initial reading of Calcium ion concentration is conducted at when the solution reaches 25° C. using the ion electrode. Then the test polymer is added incrementally to the calcium working solution (at 0.01 g/L intervals) and measured after 5 minutes of agitation following each incremental addition. The titration is stopped when the solution reaches 1 mg/g of Calcium. The titration procedure is repeated using the remaining two calcium concentration working solutions.


The binding capacity of the test polymer is calculated as the linear slope of the calcium concentrations measured against the grams/L of test polymer that was added.

The phase inversion temperature of a non-ionic surfactant or system can be determined as follows: a solution containing 1% of the corresponding surfactant or mixture by weight of the solution in distilled water is prepared. The solution is stirred gently before phase inversion temperature analysis to ensure that the process occurs in chemical equilibrium. The phase inversion temperature is taken in a thermostable bath by immersing the solutions in 75 mm sealed glass test tube. To ensure the absence of leakage, the test tube is weighed before and after phase inversion temperature measurement. The temperature is gradually increased at a rate of less than 1° C. per minute, until the temperature reaches a few degrees below the pre-estimated phase inversion temperature. Phase inversion temperature is determined visually at the first sign of turbidity.

II. Test Stains

Two test stains were used of 6.5 cm×10 cm melamine tiles soiled with Egg Yolk (DM22) and Egg Yolk Milk (DM32), all supplied by the Centre for Testmaterials, Vlaardingen, The Netherlands.


IV. Test Wash Procedure
Testing Conditions
Dishwasher: General Electric 2100
Machine Cycle: Normal Cycle

Main Wash volume: 3.8 L


Maximum Water temperature: 52.5° C.


Water hardness: 1 gpg (US)


Rinse: 1 rinse


The solid detergent composition was dosed at 3866 ppm and the liquid detergent composition dosed at 553 ppm in a North American automatic dishwashing machine. Two tiles for each stain type were added to each automatic dishwashing machine. Four External replicates were carried out and an average stain removal performance for each stain in each test composition was calculated (8 total replicates for each example detergent). The cleaning performance of Comparative Example A (containing no protease enzyme) was taken as a reference for each test to calculate the delta SRI values. The stains were analysed using image analysis, with results presented below calculated as percentage stain removal, i.e. Stain Removal Index (SRI) for the reference product A, and change in SRI for each of the treatments B (Delta B), C (Delta C), D (Delta D) and so on, versus the reference formulation (in this case Composition A). Tukey's HSD multiple comparison procedure is used in order to control the overall error rate for all pairwise comparisons at 0.05 Stain Removal Index (SRI) is defined as: 0=no removal at all, 100=complete removal.


The performance index was also measured by calculating (the performance of each of Example C, Example D, Example E and Example F minus the performance of comparative example A) divided by (performance of comparative example B minus the performance of comparative example A).
