Biological washing powder mean it contained enzyme that targeting specific type of stain such as protein, starch and fat by breaking down and make it dispersed through water easier at lower temperature than a conventional non-enzyme base detergent.

∙ 9y ago1) Some people are allergic to the enzymes if they are left on the clothes.
2) You need a better washing machine (expensive) to make sure all the enzymes are removed.
3) 40 degrees is the max. temperature it can work at or the enzymes become denatured and can't work.
4) Can't be used to wash clothes by hand.

∙ 11y agoThe main advantages of using non - biological washing powder is that they are safe to use on sensitive skin and that they are cheaper to buy and you can use them on any washing machine ( with biological you have to buy a specially designed washing machine and these are much more expensive).
The main disadvantages are the they need to be used at much higher temperature to be effective, which are costly and cause problems to the environment (fossil fuels ect.) and that they aren't as effective and take longer to get stains out!

∙ 12y agosome people cant us biological washing powder because it can effect people with sensitive skin.

What is the difference with biological and non biological wash powder?
what is the difference between biological and non biological washing powder
Is biological or non-biological washing powder better at removing stains?
Biological is better because it contains enzymes which break down the (food, dirt ect...). It combines with the substrate to break down these. It is better to use non-biological washing powder for sensitive skin and it is kinder and less aggressive. hope this helped :]
What are the disadvantages of protease in biological detergents?
Some people can have allergic reactions to biological washing powders due to the enzymes in them. One of which is protease, hope this helps?
Which chemical test shows the presence of an enzyme in a biological washing powder?
biurets test is the biochemical test for enzymesan enzyme is a protein and as the biochemical test for proteins is biurets,, its the same
Why it is recommended on biological washing powders to wash clothes at low temperature?
Far as I concern, the claim on low temperature is not accurate. Usually what branded a biological washing powder is inclusion of enzyme to help remove grease and protein. Higher temperature give more kinetic energy and so the enzyme activity increase. However, when the temperature is too high the enzyme may denature. For the Lipase enzyme, optimum temperature is 37 C. I don't think 37 C is considered low temperature. It is rather stated best use at human body temperature.

How does raising the temperature in a biological washing powder affect a protease?
Specific active site is denatured

Washing powder acid or alkaline?
if you mean biological powder, then no, no, no, NO! acid is never used in washing powder, it would damage your clothes. No, they use enzymes, which are biological catalysts. these are more effective than non-bio, but far worse for your clothes.However i see you put Pool care and cleaning in your subjects. you were probably looking for pool cleaner which is a compound of Chlorine and Potassium to make a soluble salt, very clean and very useful
Describe how enzymes used in biological washing powders are produced?
Well... BASICALLY... they aren't even in washing powder, washing powder consists of tiny women, with really small sponges, who clean, and then cover your clothes in not very nice smelling odurs. I hope this helped. Love 11YD1 Science.
How do you remove blood stain in clothes?
Since blood is made up of protein, the most effective way would be to use a biological washing powder. Biological washing powder contains protease, an enzyme that breaks down protein. The optimum temperature would be around 30 degrees Celsius. However, even then, blood stains are very difficult to get out.
Do washing powder contain acid?
Washing powder doesn't contain acids.
Why protease containing biological washing powder cannot be used to wash silk?
It would use silk as its substrate and destroy the garment. Silk is a protein.
What are the advantage of washing powder?
Biological washing powder mean it contained enzyme that targeting specific type of stain such as protein, starch and fat by breaking down and make it dispersed through water easier at lower temperature than a conventional non-enzyme base detergent.
