Abstract
A detergent composition useful for laundry applications in both unit dose form and non-unit dose form is described. The detergent composition includes a Maillard reaction inhibiting enzyme that inhibits a reducing sugar monomer present in a sustainable polymer from reacting with an amine source. The detergent composition which includes the enzyme does not undergo yellowing and thus has an increased shelf-life compared to an equivalent laundry detergent composition that lacks such an enzyme.

A unit dose detergent product comprising:
- a pouch comprising at least one chamber, the pouch being made of a water-soluble material;
- and
- a detergent composition encapsulated within the at least one chamber, the detergent composition comprising:
- at least one surfactant in an amount of from about 15 to about 35 wt % of the detergent composition;
- a sustainable polymer comprising a reducing sugar in an amount of from about 0.01 to about 20 wt % of the detergent composition;
- an amine source in an amount of from about 5 to about 30 wt % of the detergent composition;
- a Maillard reaction inhibiting enzyme in an amount of from about 0.01 to about 3 wt % of the detergent composition;
- and
- water in an amount of from about 5 to about 45 wt % of the detergent composition.

A liquid detergent composition comprising:
- at least one surfactant in an amount of from about 15 to about 35 wt % of liquid the detergent composition;
- a sustainable polymer comprising a reducing sugar in an amount of from about 0.01 to about 20 wt % of the liquid detergent composition;
- an amine source in an amount of from about 5 to about 30 wt % of the liquid detergent composition;
- a Maillard reaction inhibiting enzyme in an amount of from about 0.01 to about 3 wt % of the liquid detergent composition;
- and
- water in an amount of from about 20 to about 95 wt % of the liquid detergent composition.
