AMYLASE - ELECTROLYTES Flashcards
Catalyzes the breakdown of starch and glycogen via a,1-6 branching linkages
Amylase
Tissue source for amylase
Acinar cells of pancreas and Salivary gland
measures the appearance of starch citrate
Amyloclast
measures the appearance of the product from the starch
Saccharogenic
measure the increase in color
Chromogenic
Coupling of several enzyme systems to monitor amylase activity
Continuous monitoring
Reference range of amylase in:
Serum -
Urine -
25-130 u/L
1-15 u/hr
Salivary Amilase
ptyalin (fast moving)
Pancreatic amylase
Amylopsin (slow moving)
Smallest enzyme
Amylase
Normal range for Amylase
60-180 u/L
Tissue source in Lipase
pancreas, stomach and intestine
Hydrolyzes of fats to produce alcohols and FA
Lipase
indicator of Cherry crandall
Phenolphthalein
Thymolpthalein + Veronal indicator
Tietz
Substrate for enzyme (both cherry crandall & tietz)
50 % olive oil (triolein)
Breakdown of Lipids primarily Triglycerides
Lipase
