| 21. | Beta-amylase is present in certain bacteria as well as in plants.
|
| 22. | Amylase is the enzyme that breaks down starch and its copy number varies.
|
| 23. | Human saliva is rich in amylase, and the pancreas also secretes the enzyme.
|
| 24. | Beta-amylase cuts starch into maltose units.
|
| 25. | Salivary amylase is contained in saliva and starts the breakdown of carbohydrates into monosaccharides.
|
| 26. | :" It is usually not necessary to measure both serum amylase and lipase.
|
| 27. | Moreover, acarbose inhibits pancreatic alpha-amylase in addition to alpha-glucosidase.
|
| 28. | There are no pathologies associated with low amylase or basophils that I know of.
|
| 29. | The germination causes an accelerated production of the starch degrading enzyme alpha-amylase.
|
| 30. | The higher the alpha-amylase activity the lower the viscosity of the slurry.
