摘要:
The present invention provides methods and compositions comprising at least one neutral metalloprotease enzyme that has improved storage stability. In some embodiments, the neutral metalloprotease finds use in cleaning and other applications. In some particularly preferred embodiments, the present invention provides methods and compositions comprising neutral metalloprotease(s) obtained from Bacillus sp. In some more particularly preferred embodiments, the neutral metalloprotease is obtained from B. amyloliquefaciens. In still further preferred embodiments, the neutral metalloprotease is a variant of the B. amyloliquefaciens neutral metalloprotease. In yet additional embodiments, the neutral metalloprotease is a homolog of the the B. amyloliquefaciens neutral metalloprotease. The present invention finds particular use in applications including, but not limited to cleaning, bleaching and disinfecting.
摘要:
An insect trapping device having a base and a cartridge is provided. The cartridge has a shell and an insert. The insert is releaseably retained within the shell and has an adhesive portion for trapping insects. Gravitational force can pull the insert from the shell when the cartridge is removed from the base and the shell is squeezed by a user. The insect trapping device can have insect attractants, such as a light source and a heating element.
