| abstract |
The present invention relates to enzyme-containing granules comprising (a) an enzyme and (b) a core which intrinsically is capable of absorbing at least 5% w/w (based on the weight of the core) of water and to processes for the production of such granules comprises (a) contacting absorbent cores, capable of absorbing at least 5% w/w (based on the weight of the core) of water, with a liquid medium, such as an aqueous medium, containing an enzyme in dissolved and/or dispersed form, the amount of the liquid medium employed being such that substantially no attendant agglomeration of the resulting product occurs; and (b) at least partially removing volatile components of the liquid medium from the resulting product. |
