Amylases
Amylases are crucial enzymes which hydrolyze internal glycosidic linkages in starch and produce as primary products dextrins and oligosaccharides. Amylases are classified into α-amylase, β-amylase, and glucoamylase based on their three-dimensional structures, reaction mechanisms, and amino acid sequences. Amylases have innumerable applications in clinical, medical, and analytical chemistries as well as in food, detergent, textile, brewing, and distilling industries.

Ethylidene-4-nitrophenyl-a-D-Maltoheptaoside
0 ImagesSynonyms: pNP-G7Ethylidene-4-nitrophenyl-α-D-Maltoheptaoside (EPS; pNP-G7) serves as a substrate for α-amylase. In the presence of an auxiliary enzyme such as α-glucosidase (α-glucosidase), Ethylidene-4-nitrophenyl-α-D-Maltoheptaoside is degraded by amylase (Amylase) to release a chromophore, enabling the measurement of amylase activity. Ethylidene-4-nitrophenyl-α-D-Maltoheptaoside is applicable for the diagnosis of pancreatitis[2].
