Alpha-Amylase, Human Pancreas | P1545

The enzyme a-Amylase hydrolyses alpha-bonds of large alpha-linked polysaccharides like starch and glycogen, yielding glucose and maltose. It is being used by researchers as a barometer of the body's response to physical or psychological stress. NIH study shows that Women with high levels of alpha amylase, indicating stress, are less likely to conceive.
