Product comprising poly alpha 1,3-glucan esters

A laundry detergent composition comprising:

• (i) detersive surfactant at 10 to 40 percent by weight of the laundry detergent composition;
• and
• (ii) polyalpha-1,3-glucan ester compound at 0.1 to 10 percent by weight of the laundry detergent composition, the polyalpha-1,3-glucan ester compound comprising poly alpha-1,3 glucan backbone and ester group modification,
• wherein the poly alpha-1,3 glucan backbone:
• has less than about 10% branching point, and
• contains about 6 or more glucose units,
• wherein the ester group modification being one or more independently selected from:
• (a) an acetyl;
• (b) an aryl ester group;
• (c) an acyl group
• wherein a is independently about 6-24;
• and
• (d) an acyl group
• wherein R3 can be independently selected from H atoms, linear alkyl groups, branched alkyl groups, cyclic alkyl groups, and aryl groups comprising from one to 24 carbon atoms, and wherein (d) is different from (a) and (c);
• (e) an acyl group comprising —CO—Cx—COOR3, wherein the —Cx— portion of the second acyl group comprises a chain of about 2 to about 24 carbon atoms, and R3 comprises a chain of about 1 to about 24 carbon,
• with the proviso that (a) is present, and at least one other ester group (b), (c) (d) and/or (e) are present, and
• wherein the degree of substitution of the ester group modification is from about 0.001 to about 3.
