A chewing gum comprising at least one biodegradable polymer, sweetener in an amount from about 0.5% to about 95% of said chewing gum, one or more flavoring agents, filler in an amount from about 0 to 50% by weight of said chewing gum, further chewing gum ingredients and at least one enzyme, wherein said at least one enzyme is comprised in a hydrophobic enzyme formulation. According to the invention, it has been established that an enzymatically activated degradation may by obtained when applying a hydrophobic enzyme formulation even though the hydrophobic enzyme formulation, e.g. when applying a dispersion of substantially hydrophilic enzymes in a hydrophobic medium such as oil, might be suspected to have a negative influence on the functionality of the enzymes at the active sites of the applied enzyme.

L'invention concerne un chewing-gum comprenant au moins un polymère biodégradable, un édulcorant dans une quantité d'environ 0,5 % à environ 95 % dudit chewing-gum, un ou plusieurs agents aromatisants, une charge dans une quantité d'environ 0 à 50 % en poids dudit chewing-gum, d'autres ingrédients de chewing-gum et au moins une enzyme, la ou lesdites enzymes étant composées d'une formulation enzymatique hydrophobe. Selon l'invention, il a été établi qu'une dégradation enzymatiquement activée peut être obtenue lors de l'application d'une formulation enzymatique hydrophobe, bien qu'il soit possible de supposer que la formulation enzymatique hydrophobe, lors de l'application d'une dispersion d'enzymes sensiblement hydrophiles dans un milieu hydrophobe tel que de l'huile, par exemple, puisse avoir une influence négative sur la fonctionnalité des enzymes aux sites actifs de l'enzyme appliquée.
