Abstract

The cleaning industry has seen a surge in the use of manufactured enzymes for their effectiveness in breaking down organic stains and residues. Although commercial, enzyme-based cleaning products have amassed popularity among the general public, concerns over their environmental consequences persist. This research study intends to comprehensively compare the efficacy of store-bought enzymes and homemade bio-enzymes in antimicrobial applications. Bio-enzymes are synthesized through fermentation of jaggery and complex polyphenols (sourced from orange rinds) in water. Both types of enzymes are assessed on their antimicrobial effectiveness by observing activity in gelatin-based spread bacteria plates. Finally, this study intends to address future research into the possibilities of manufacturing recyclable cleaning agents through enzyme immobilization in polymer composites.
