Cleaning compositions containing an extracellular protease produced by a microorganism of the genus Vibrio are provided. Such enzymes are characterized by a high proteolytic activity, stability over wide pH and temperature ranges and excellent stability to oxidizing agents, including a unique stability to chlorine bleaches, and are well-suited for formulation into laundry detergents, automatic dishwasher detergents, laundry bleaches, pre-soaks, as well as other types of cleaning compositions. |
