The role of salivary amylase in the digestion of starches remains controversial. In the absence of pancreatic amylase‚ the key enzyme for starch digestion‚ salivary amylase may well represent a potential compensatory alternate pathway for the digestion of amylose‚ amylopectin‚ and glycogen. Clinically significant depression of pancreatic amylase occurs in chronic pancreatitis‚ pancreatic resection‚ pancreatic neoplasm‚ cystic fibrosis‚ and other causes of pancreatic insufficiency.

Optimal Levels of Pollution Using the words “optimal” and “pollution” in the same sentence may appear daunting to many‚ however when the notion of an “optimal level of pollution” is fully explained‚ it appears more logical and applicable to our current global pollution problem. In his book‚ “People or Penguins: The Case for Optimal Pollution”‚ William Baxter makes several astounding points which lead us to the conclusion that zero pollution is not feasible‚ therefore we must consider what an optimal

It is effectively a diagnosis of exclusion: the finding of a very high serum amylase activity is very suggestive but is not on its own diagnostic

OPTIMAL SERVICE PRICING FOR A CLOUD CACHE OPTIMAL SERVICE PRICING FOR A CLOUD CACHE ABSTRACT: Cloud applications that offer data management services are emerging. Such clouds support caching of data in order to provide quality query services. The users can query the cloud data‚ paying the price for the infrastructure they use. Cloud management necessitates an economy that manages the service of multiple users in an efficient‚ but also‚ resource economic way that allows for cloud profit

pH pH means Power of Hydrogen or Potential of Hydrogen. pH is a scale of acidity from 0 to 14. It tells how acidic or alkaline a substance is. More acidic solutions have lower pH. More alkaline solutions have higher pH. Substances which are not acidic or alkaline i.e neutral usually have a pH of around 7. Acids have a pH less than 7. Alkalis have a pH greater than 7. There are a lot of ways for finding the pH of something. One way is to use litmus paper. The pH paper is able to tell how strong

bounded substrate. Amylase enzyme‚ just like any other enzyme‚ has an optimum PH and temperature range in which it is most active‚ and in which the substrate binds most easily. The purpose of this experiment was to determine (1) the reaction rate of an amylase enzyme in starch and (2) the environmental factors that can affect the enzymatic activity. The hypothesis‚ in relation to the enzymatic activity by variables such as the substrate concentrations‚ temperature‚ PH and chemical interactions
