Detergent enzymes are biological enzymes that are used with detergents. They catalyze the reaction between stains and the water solution, thus aiding stain removal and improving efficiency.[1] Laundry detergent enzymes are the largest application of industrial enzymes.[2]
They can be a part of both liquid and powder detergents.
