  2. α-Amylase - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Α-Amylase

    Blood should be taken soon after a bout of pancreatitis pain, otherwise it is excreted rapidly by the kidneys. Salivary α-amylase has been used as a biomarker for stress [10] [11] and as a surrogate marker of sympathetic nervous system (SNS) activity [12] that does not require a blood draw.

  3. Amylolytic process - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amylolytic_process

    Amylolytic process or amylolysis is the conversion of starch into sugar by the action of acids or enzymes such as amylase. [1]Starch begins to pile up inside the leaves of plants during times of light when starch is able to be produced by photosynthetic processes.

  4. Enzyme assay - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Enzyme_assay

    Most enzymes are sensitive to pH and have specific ranges of activity. All have an optimum pH. The pH can stop enzyme activity by denaturating (altering) the three-dimensional shape of the enzyme by breaking ionic, and hydrogen bonds. Most enzymes function between a pH of 6 and 8; however pepsin in the stomach works best at a pH of 2 and ...

  5. Amylase - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amylase

    Another form of amylase, β-amylase (EC 3.2.1.2 ) (alternative names: 1,4-α-D-glucan maltohydrolase; glycogenase; saccharogen amylase) is also synthesized by bacteria, fungi, and plants. Working from the non-reducing end, β-amylase catalyzes the hydrolysis of the second α-1,4 glycosidic bond, cleaving off two glucose units at a

  6. Diastase - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diastase

    A diastase (/ ˈ d aɪ ə s t eɪ z /; from Greek διάστασις, "separation") is any one of a group of enzymes that catalyses the breakdown of starch into maltose.For example, the diastase α-amylase degrades starch to a mixture of the disaccharide maltose; the trisaccharide maltotriose, which contains three α (1-4)-linked glucose residues; and oligosaccharides, known as dextrins, that ...

  8. Carbohydrase - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carbohydrase

    β-amylase catalyses the hydrolysis of starch into maltose by the process of removing successive maltose units from the non-reducing ends of the chains. γ-Amylase will cleave the last α(1–4)glycosidic linkages at the nonreducing end of amylose and amylopectin , yielding glucose.
