Product Overview
Alpha-amylaseis a functional enzyme specialized in hydrolyzing alpha-glycosidic bonds of large, alpha-linked polysaccharides including starch and glycogen. Boasting small molecular weight and outstanding stability, it exhibits strong resistance to diverse unfavorable conditions. It catalyzes the degradation of starch and glycogen into maltose and glucose to sustain energy supply for humans and animals, and is widely distributed across various natural biological systems.
