Enzymes in Everyday Life

Enzymes are constantly encountered in our daily lives, often without us noticing. Did you know, for example, that enzymes in laundry detergent ensure your clothes become clean again? Or that enzymes are used in juice production to make the juice clearer and more yield-efficient?
