abstract |
A completely water soluble effervescent denture cleanser tablet containing both an enzyme and one or more active oxygen compounds. The enzyme in said tablet is resistant to premature inactivation by the oxidizing agents in the tablet during storage and in use and therefore has the added enzymatic cleansing power not possessed by conventional tablets containing only the active oxygen compounds. A method for preparing enzyme-containing denture cleanser tablets in which the activity of the enzyme is usefully retained is also described. |
