Are enzymes living organisms?

No, enzymes are essential for all metabolic processes, but are not themselves living material.

Are enzymes safe?

Yes, enzymes have been safely used for thousands of years. For an enzyme to work, the material it works upon must be present. If no such material is available to the enzyme, the enzyme performs no function.

What are "Hospital Grade" enzymes?

Hospital grade enzymes are purified enzymes safe for cleaning medical and dental instruments. ChemFree Solutions has applied the science of medical cleaning to our entire line of consumer products. This suite of enzymes is blended with other all-natural ingredients to specifically attack common cleaning challenges. The result is a  product  not only more effective than other cleaners, but also safe for the family and our earth.

Do enzymes pose any threat to the environment?

No. Enzymes themselves are readily biodegradable. Reactions are non-toxic and when degraded can be readily absorbed back into nature.

What substances can enzymes target?

Enzymes work only on organic materials; food, grease, mold and other renewable raw material.

How long will the enzyme last ?

Enzymes, being catalysts, do not become part of the final product of the biochemical reaction which they are catalyzing. When the biochemical reaction is over, the product of the reaction leaves the enzyme. Given the right conditions, the enzyme will slowly degrade providing a longer term solution to cleaning problems.

What are the different types of enzymes and can they be combined?

Enzymes are categorized according to the compounds they act upon. Some of the most common include; proteases which break down proteins, cellulases which break down cellulose, lipases which split fats into glycerol and fatty acids, amylases which break down starch into simple sugars.

Can I mix enzymes with other chemicals?

Yes, enzymes can be combined with other enzymes and non-caustic compounds. Beware that caustic chemicals may destroy the enzymes.

Are enzymes safe for use around plants?

Enzymes can be safely used around humans, animals, and plants. Enzymes are the perfect cleaner for outdoors where they can be used without adverse affects on lawns, shrub, flowers, or other plant life.
