Uni-enzyme
 
Description 349-353
This research compares the effectivity of a neutral cellulase isolated from Bacillus licheniformis KM999221 with a
commercial biofinishing agent. The results clearly show the efficacy of this enzyme and its potential to perform over and
above a commercial biofinishing formulation. The application of this neutral cellulase would not only be soft on the
environment but also fabrics friendly in terms of fabric handle, bursting strength and minimal fabric pilling. This study helps
in successfully optimizing the biopolishing of cotton fabrics using a uni/single system, thus paving the way for the use of
more such enzyme to be tapped as potential biofinishing agents.
