18
Q

Amylase found in Humans

A

Alpha Amylase

19
Q

Amylase found in Plants

A

Beta Amylase

20
Q

Amylase Assay Method:

AMS hydrolyzes starch, the Iodine is released and a decrease in the initial dark blue color intensity of the starch-iodine complex occurs.

A

Amyloclastic Method

21
Q

In Amyloclastic Method, if there is a decrease in the Dark Blue Color Intensity, what does this mean for the AMS concentration?

A

Increase in AMS concentration

22
Q

Amylase Assay Method:

The amount of reducing sugars is measured where the concentration is proportional to AMS Activity

A

Saccharogenic Method

23
Q

Classic Reference method for Saccharogenic Method

A

Sumogyi Units

24
Q

Amylase Assay Method:

As AMS hydrolyzes starch substrate, smaller dye substrate fragments are produced, and these are water soluble

A

Chromogenic Method

25
Q

In the Chromogenic Method, if there is an increase in Color Intensity, what does this mean for the AMS Concentration?

A

Increase in AMS Concentration

26
Q

Amylase Assay Method:

Have been used to determine AMS activity by a continuous-monitoring technique in which the change in absorbance of NAD+ at 340 nm is measured

A

Coupled-Enzymes

27
Q

Difference between Coenzyme and Activator

A

Coenzyme - uses Organic substances
Activator - uses Inorganic substances

28
Q

Amylase Assay Method:

Salivary and pancreatic amylase can be estimated by measuring total AMS in the presence and absence of lectin

A

Wheat Germ Lectin

29
Q

This amylase assay method inhibits salivary amylase
