Linear alkylbenzenesulfonate (LAS) is the most widespread anionic surfactant used in domestic and commercial detergent formulations, primarily in laundry detergents and cleaning products. LAS, derived from petroleum bi-products, is quite rapidly degraded aerobically, but only very slowly or not at all under anaerobic conditions.
