A new method is presented that utilizes p‐nitroanilide substrates to quantify proteolytic activity of detergent enzymes. The method is contrasted to the dimethylcasein method currently in use by detergent industries, and the advantages of the new method and its potential for monitoring enzyme dust in factories are discussed.
