Bremsstrahlung (or Brems) radiation. is one of the two kinds of x-rays produced at the tungsten target of the x-ray tube; The incident high-speed electron, passing through a tungsten atom, is attracted by the positively charged nucleus and therefore is deflected from its course, with a resulting loss of energy.
An amylase (/ËaemÉ¨leÉªs/) ËÃ¦mÉ¨leÉªs is an enzyme that catalyses the hydrolysis of starch into. Sugars amylase is present in the saliva of humans and some other, mammals where it begins the chemical process of. digestionhe pancreas and salivary gland make amylase (alpha amylase) to hydrolyse dietary starch into disaccharides and trisaccharides which are converted by other enzymes to glucose to supply the body with energy. Plants and some bacteria also produce amylase.
Amylase is an enzyme that has several different forms called isoenzymes. Different tissues make different forms. P-amylase refers to the type of amylase made mainly in the pancreas. S-amylase refers to the type of amylase made mainly by the salivary glands. P-amylase in the blood increases when the pancreas is inflamed or damaged. S-amylase in the blood increases when the salivary gland is inflamed or damaged.
