Enzymes Flashcards
cleaves 1,4 glucoside bonds
amylase
catalyzes hydrogen peroxide- mediated oxidation
lactoperoxidase
absorbs hydroxyapatite in active form
lactoperoxidase
hydrolysis of triglycerides to free fatty acids and partial glycerides
Lipase
ties up free ions
lactoferrin
agglutination of bacteria inhibits bacterial enzymes
secretory immunoglobin
agglutination of bacteria
glycoproteins (mucin)
what effects biofilm by increasing the availability of oligosaccharides
amylase
what effects biofilm b/c it is lethal to many organisms?
lactoperoxidase & Lysozyme
what effects biofilm by suppressing the formation of plaque of tooth surface?
lactoperoxidase & Lysozyme
lyses cells by degradation of cell walls
Lysozyme
what effects biofilm b/c free fatty acids inhibit attachment and growth of some organisms
Lipase
what inhibits the growth of ion-dependent microbes
lactoferrin
slows growth of bacteria & recused number
secretory immunoglobin
reduces number in saliva by precipitation
mucin
