โœฆ Synopsis


cleaning powder which the company says literally "eats and digests certain types of stains from clothing" has been perfected by the laboratories of Pabst Brewing Co. in Milwaukee, Wis.

It is an enzyme with a great affinity for protein, the company explained. Through a form of digestive action it actually "devours" stains caused by eggs, milk, ice cream, chocolate, coffee, blood, glue and other protein-base ingredients. The new spot eater will also get rid of beer stains.

The new product can be used on cotton, wool, nylon, rayon and certain acetates, according to Dr. Alexander Frieden, director of research for Pabst. It cannot be used on some fabrics manufactured from artificial yarn having a protein base since the enzyme would proceed to digest the fabric itself.

Exzyme, as the powder is known, has been tested in the A1 Tash Dye Works, Grand Prairie, Texas, for three years. Milwaukee dry cleaners have been testing it more recently.

Exzyme, the company asserts, is a cheaper and safer cleaning agent than the petroleum-base products now used. Diluted in the ratio of one teaspoonful to a gallon of water, it will provide a successful solution to food, spots in clothing. The powder is now in commercial production.
