The differential diagnosis of bigeminal rhythms. Wing JP, Phibbs B. Bigeminal rhythms may arise from ectopic firing or from failure of impulse generation or conduction. In atrial bigeminy a premature atrial beat beat follows each sinus beat. If the PAC is not conducted bradycardia may result; if it is symptomatic treatment with digitalis or quinidine is indicated.
Intrinsically resistant to digestion and contains high amounts of amylose.Found in: fruits, potatoes, hi-maize RS products, corn, some legumes.Note: the more ârawâ or âuncookedâ a food is, the more RS it tends to have, since heat results in gelatinization of starch â making it more accessible to digestion.
Alpha-amylase is found in animals, plants, and microorganisms. Reactions in which it participates form mainly dextrins. Beta-amylase, typical in higher plants, catalyzes the formation of maltoses and macromolecular dextrins.Glucoamylase is found in the blood of animals, in fungi, in bacteria, and elsewhere.alivary amylase is also known as ptyalin and is found in humans, the ape, pig, guinea pig, squirrel, mouse, and rat. In plants, starch is broken down during the germination of seeds (rich in starch) by associated plant enzymes into sugars.
