A digestive enzyme such as pancreatic amylase breaks down starch to what disaccharide studied in this laboratory?
Amylase hydrolyses starch into maltose.
What kind of enzyme breaks down carbohydrates?
Starch is the polysaccharide which is broken down into glucose by the body in a series of stages. Amylase digests starch into maltose (a disaccharide). Maltase is the enzyme which breaks maltose into glucose.
How the enzyme amylase affects starch?
It catalyzes the hydrolysis of starch into maltose and dextrin. An easier way to explain is that the amylase acts a catalyst( invloved in reaction but not used up) and breaks the starch down to the sugar maltose at a certain temperature.
What enzyme breaks down carbohydrates?
Several. * Amylase breaks down starch to simpler sugar * sucrase breaks down sucrose to glucose * maltase breaks down maltose to glucose
What does amylase break down?
Amylase breaks down starch molecules into sugar. It is produced in the salivary glands, the pancreas and the small intestine.
A digestive enzyme such as pancreatic amylase breaks down starch to what disaccharide studied in this laboratory?
Amylase hydrolyses starch into maltose.
When amylase breaks down starch what does it release?
amylase breaks starch down and releases maltose from which maltase breaks it up into two glucose molecules

What do enzyme amylase do?
Well if mixed with starch it breaks down the starch to form the sugar maltose when heated at a certain temperature.
What is the hydrolytic product of starch?
glucose maltose and maltotriose
What is the subtrate and subunit product of amylase?
The Substrate for amylase are starch (amylose and Amylopectin), glycogen, and various Oligosaccharides and the subunit is maltose.
Does saliva contain starch?
Saliva contains the enzyme amylase which breaks down the starch (amylose) into maltose.
What is the substance that breaks down starch into sugar?
Maltase
Is protease found in saliva?
No. It contains salivary amylase which breaks down starch into maltose which is broken down into glucose by maltase =)
