Abstract
Five commercial laundry detergents were evaluated using natural soil obtained from facial wipes. The largest observed difference between products was in their removal of particulate soil from the yarn surfaces. The effectiveness of particulate soil removal was related to the surfactants/builder system. The type of laundry detergent influenced the concentration of residual oily soil found in selected locations within and around the cotton and polyester fibers. -- AATA
