Introduction. The influence of infection with two species of entomopathogenic nematodes of Steinernematidae family on metabolism of glycogen and trehalose of the host was studied. Material and methods. Last instar larvae (L₇) of Galleria mellonella were experimentally infected with Steinernema affinis and S. feltiae. At 6, 12, 18 and 24 h after infection concentrations of trehalose and glycogen as well as activity of trehalase and α-amylase were determined. Results. The content of glycogen was lower in insects infected with S. feltiae than in the controls and animals infected with S. affinis. The content of trehalose was higher in insects from both infected groups than in the controls. Its concentration was slightly higher in larvae infected with S. affinis than in those infected with S. feltiae. The activity of α-amylase after infection with S. affinis was low. It was significantly higher in insects infected with S. feltiae. In animals of both infected groups, following a significant reduction at 6 h, the activity of trehalase remained at a similar level, higher than in the controls. In the paper the effects of infection with (i) different species of entomopathogenic nematodes and (ii) the importance of the developmental stage of the insect-host for changes in its metabolism of glycogen and trehalose were discussed.

Abstract: Dipsacus fullonum L. syn. D. sylvestris is a biennial plant from the Dipsacaceae family. It grows in Europe, North Africa and Asia Minor. It has been used in folk medicine mainly to treat Lyme disease. This study was undertaken to identify and compare the components of the essential oils from dried and fresh roots, which are usually applied as medicinal agents, as well as those of the essential oils from dried and fresh leaves, used less frequently. The essential oils from the Dipsacus fullonum leaves and roots were analysed by the GC and GC-MS analysis. 18 components were identified in the essential oil from the fresh leaves, whereas 37 were recognised in the oil from the dried leaves; 10 components were identified in the essential oil from the fresh roots and 40 in that from the dried roots. Phytol was the main component in the essential oil from the leaves, whereas n-hexadecanoic acid was predominant in the roots. The α -amylase inhibition has been proven for methanolic extracts of D. fullonum leaves and roots. The strongest activity was demonstrated by the extract from fresh leaves of D. fullonum and showed an effect about one hundred times weaker than acarbose.

Opis:
This study investigated the possibility of producing juice by hydrolyzing acha starch using crude amylase from germinated maize. Planted maize was monitored for seven days to determine germinative capacity and amylase activity of the seed. Extracted acha starch was hydrolysed using wet homogenised maize seedlings in an incubator at 62-68 °C for 6-8 hours. Colour, pH, titratable acidity (TTA), °Brix and sensory attribute of the juice were determined using standard method. A commercial malt beverage was used as reference. The maize sample had a mean capacity of 95% while its maximum amylase activity occurred at day 4. The pH, TTA, and °Brix of the juice were obtained as 4.5, 0.85 and 10 respectively. Colour values for L*, a*, and b* were 37.64, 7.6, and 15.3 respectively. Sensory analysis showed no significant difference between the juice and reference sample in terms of taste and colour. However, significant differences were observed in aroma and overall acceptability. Hence, malt beverages can be produced using this method but requires certain additives to impart prevalent aroma associated with malt beverages.

Opis:
Amaranthus caudatus L. seed germination was studied under different levels of water deficit induced by PEG 6000 in laboratory conditions. PEG at osmotic potentials -0.2 to -0.3 MPa at 24°C in darkness delayed germination and reduced final germination percentage. PEG solutions at osmotic potential lower than -0.3 MPa almost totally blocked seed germination. Ethephon was much more effective than GA3 in reversing PEG-caused inhibition of A. caudatus seed germination. PEG decreased α-amylase activity after 14 h incubation. It decreased β-amylase activity after 14 and 20 h, and caused an increase in total dehydrogenase activity only after 20 h of incubation. Unlike GA3, ethephon increased α-amylase activity in seeds after 12 and 14 h of incubation under water deficit. After 20 h of incubation there was no difference in α-amylase activity in any of the treatments. Neither ethephon nor GA3 affected the activity of β-amylase and dehydrogenase.

Opis:
There has been an enormous interest in the development of alternative medicines for type 2 diabetes, specifically screening for phytochemicals with the ability to delay or prevent glucose absorption. The goal of the present study was to provide in vitro evidence for potential inhibition of α-glucosidase and α-amylase enzymes, followed by a confirmatory in vivo study on rats to generate a stronger biochemical rationale for further studies on the ethanolic extract of Andrographis paniculata and andrographolide. The extract showed appreciable α-glucosidase inhibitory effect in a concentration-dependent manner (IC50=17.2±0.15 mg/ml) and a weak α-amylase inhibitory activity (IC50=50.9±0.17 mg/ml). Andrographolide demonstrated a similar (IC50=11.0±0.28 mg/ml) α-glucosidase and α-amylase inhibitory activity (IC50=11.3±0.29 mg/ml). The positive in vitro enzyme inhibition tests paved way for confirmatory in vivo studies. The in vivo studies demonstrated that A. paniculata extract significantly (P<0.05) reduced peak blood glucose and area under curve in diabetic rats when challenged with oral administration of starch and sucrose. Further, andrographolide also caused a significant (P<0.05) reduction in peak blood glucose and area under the curve in diabetic rats. Hence α-glucosidase inhibition may possibly be one of the mechanisms for the A. paniculata extract to exert antidiabetic activity and indicates that AP extract can be considered as a potential candidate for the management of type 2 diabetes mellitus.

Opis:
Genetic analysis of two rye interline crosses and a set of wheat/rye chromosomal addition lines was performed to reveal the mechanism underlying wide variation range of alpha-amylase activity in sound grain. The long arm of chromosome 6R was found to be responsible for increased enzyme synthesis during late stages of triticale grain maturation. Only nuclear genes seemed to control alpha-amylase activity, as reciprocal crosses between rye lines showed no maternal effects. Low enzyme activity showed complete dominance over high level of its synthesis. Segregation ratios, observed in F₂ and BC₁ crosses, indicated that recessive alleles at two independent duplicative loci underlie intensive alpha-amylase production.

Opis:
This study focused on determining the amylase-producing ability of the intestinal microbes in cultured fresh water fishes – Oreochromis niloticus and Clarias gariepinus. The bacterial isolates were identified on the basis of standard cultural, morphological and biochemical characteristics. The amylase production ability of the bacterial isolates was determined using starch agar. The mean viable count of the intestinal microbes ranged from 1.2 × 105 CFU/ml to 7.1 × 105 CFU/ml for tilapias (Oreochromis niloticus) and from 2.0 × 104 CFU/ml to 8.9 × 104 CFU/ml for catfishes (Clarias gariepinus). Staphylococcus and Micrococcus were predominant for both tilapias and catfishes. Out of 24 isolates, 21 were amylase producers. These included the following bacteria genera: Bacillus, Micrococcus, and Staphylococcus. These results strongly suggest that intestinal microbes play a pivotal role in the digestion of starch in cultured freshwater fishes and should be explored for industrial amylase production.

The aim of this study was to investigate the impact of feed supplements with alfa-amylase and beta-glucanase (Optipartum C+ 200) on ingestive-related behaviour biomarkers registered with real-time sensors: rumination behaviours and reticulorumen parameters (pH and temperature). Cows (n=20) in the treatment group (TG) were fed with Optipartum C+ 200 (Enzymes feed supplement: Alfa-Amylase 57 Units; Beta-Glucanase 107 Units) from 21 days before calving until 30 days after calving with a feeding rate of 200 g/cow/day. Cows (n=22) in the control group (CG) were fed a feed ration without feed supplement. Measurements started from 6 days before calving and continued until 21 days after calving. The following indicators were registered: with the RumiWatch System: Rumination time; Eating time; Drinking time; Rumination chews; Eating chews; Drinking gulps; Bolus; Chews per minute; Chews per bolus. With the SmaXtec system: the temperature, pH of the contents of the cows’ reticulorumens, and cows’ walking activity. According to our results, feed supplementation with alfa-amylase and beta-glucanase (Optipartum C+ 200) in the TG group resulted in increases in the following parameters: 9% rumination time and eating time, 19% drinking time, 11% rumination chews, 16% eating chews, 13% number of boluses per rumination, 5% chews per minute and 16% chews per bolus. The rumination time showed a strong, positive relation with rumination chews and bolus indicators in both groups (TG and CG) (p<0.001); while the rumination time in both groups of cows showed an opposite direction and was negatively related to eating time and eating chews (p<0.05). We found a 1.28 % lower reticulorumen pH and a 0.64 % lower reticulorumen temperature in cows fed with the supplement compared with cows in the control group. Cows in TG were 8.80% more active than those in the CG group. For improvement of ingestive-related behaviour we suggest adding a feed supplement with alfa-amylase and beta-glucanase (Optipartum C+ 200).

The influence of different factors on amylolytic activity Bacillus cereus (2 strains) and Bacillus mycoides (2 strains), isolated from soil samples and water of Turawa Lake has been studied. Effect of physiological (pH of reaction mixture in the range of 4.0–8.0, temperature of reaction from 30 to 60 oC) and nutritional parameters (the carbon sources and they concentration in medium) were examined spectophotometricaly for their effect on amylase production. The results obtained showed, that in view of all studied factors the least favorable value of pH was 5.0, while in most cases the most favourable for the process of amylase production were following values 7.0 and 8.0. Moreover, it has been stated that the lowest amount of amylase was noted at 30 oC, and the highest at 60 oC. In case of amylolytic activity, in view of all temperatures the most effective strain was B. mycoides A134 whereas the least B. mycoides G3. The best results of amylase production have been achieved for all remaining strains in two cases – on maltose and glucose medium at all tested temperatures. Additionally, soil occurring strains preferred lower concentration of potato starch (ie 1 %) when compared with water strains which favoured higher concentration (5 %).
Celem badań była ocena wpływu różnych czynników na aktywność amylolityczną Bacillus cereus (2 szczepy) i Bacillus mycoides (2 szczepy) wyizolowanych z gleby i Jeziora Turawskiego. Metodą spektrofotometryczną badano wpływ pH mieszaniny reakcyjnej w zakresie od 5.0 do 8.0 i temperatury w zakresie od 30 oC do 60 oC oraz źródła węgla i jego koncentracji w podłożu na poziom produkowanych amylaz. Stwierdzono, iż najgorszą wartością pH do syntezy amylaz było 5.0, natomiast najlepszą, w większości przypadków pH 7.0. Uwzględniając zakres badanych temperatur, najwyższą aktywność uzyskano w temp. 60 oC, natomiast najniższą w temp. 30 oC dla wszystkich testowanych szczepów. Najbardziej aktywnym szczepem był B. mycoides A 134, natomiast najmniej B. mycoides G3.

Opis:
The tomato leaf miner, Tuta absoluta Meyrick (Lepidoptera: Gelechiidae), is one of the most destructive pest of solanaceae and it prefers tomato (Solanum lycopersicum L.). The aim of the current study was to investigate the effects of a wide range of seed proteinaceous extracts from different plant families against T. absoluta α-amylase activity. The effect of pH on the inhibitory activity of seed extracts showed that seed extracts of amaranth along with a wheat cultivar (Alvand, Aflak, Sarvdasht, Alborz, and Kavir) produced more than a 50% inhibition of the insect amylase. Aflak wheat seed extract at 10 μg, inhibited 81% of the insect amylase. This percent was the highest inhibition achieved. The other proteinaceous seed extracts had a lower effect on the enzymatic activity. Probit analysis showed that Aflak, Kavir, Alborz, Alvand, Sarvdasht, and amaranth inhibited the amylase activity with an I50 of 1.94, 3.24, 3.46, 3.31, 4.97, and 15.39 μg, respectively. The effect of pH on the inhibition of the α-amylase showed the highest inhibition of Amaranth and wheat, at a pH value of 8.0, which corresponds to the pH of the insect’s gut. Gel electrophoresis assays confirmed the spectrophotometric assays showing that the α-amylase of the insect gut was affected by the presence of the seed extracts. In the gel assay, a high concentration (14 μg protein) of amaranth proteinaceous seed extract greatly decreased the intensity of the α-amylase band. A high concentration of the Aflak wheat cultivar (10 μg protein) caused the disappearance of the amylase band in the gel. Thus, it is concluded that the physiochemical environment of the insect gut affects the interaction between digestive α-amylase and the metabolites. The experiments showed that seed proteinaceous extracts from non-host plant species, produced more inhibition of the insect amylase when compared to the host plant species. It appears that with evolution, adaptation took place so that insect/s could overcome the plant metabolites.

Opis:
Starch-iodine assay method for the determination of α-amylase activity is also used in screening extracts for α-amylase inhibitors. However, there are indications that this method may not be appropriate for screening some classes of compounds or plant extracts. The present study investigated the limitation(s) of this method in screening plant extracts/compounds for α-amylase inhibition. A crude methanol extract (CR) of Dacryodes edulis, its solvent fractions (ethyl acetate (EA), aqueous methanol (AM), and hexane (HX)), quercetin (QC), and benzoic acid (BA) were used for this study. The phytochemical content and antioxidant activity were screened spectrophotometrically. α-Amylase inhibition (expressed in percentage and as IC50) was determined by starch-iodine method approach I and II (ST-ID I and ST-ID II, respectively) and dinitrosalicylic acid (DNSA) as the control method. The results showed that the extracts/compounds (AM, EA, and QC) with significantly high polyphenolic content, antioxidant activity, and starch-iodine complex decolorization effect yielded contrary results of α-amylase inhibition when the results of ST-ID I and II methods were compared to that of the DNSA method. The other test samples (CR, HX, and BA) yielded similar results for all the three methods. The result also showed the decolorization (%) of starch-iodine complex by the test samples correlated significantly (r = 0.877, P < 0.05) with DPPH reduction (%). In conclusion, the present study showed that the starch-iodine method is not appropriate for screening antioxidative extracts/compounds for α-amylase inhibitors – they decolorize the assay reagent in a manner similar to DPPH reduction and hence confound the result.

The isolation of rye ß-Amy1 and ß-Amy2 gene promoters from nuclear DNA using the inverse polymerase chain reaction (IPCR) technique and characterization of their sequences are presented. The conservation of ß-amylasc coding sequences allowed for simultaneous IPCR amplification of two different promoters with primers designed on the basis of the single known cDNA sequence. Two ß-amylasc gene promoters display a low sequence similarity (47%). Beside consensus TATA and CCAAT boxes, other sequence motives common to both promoters were found.

Opis:
Malting on a microtechnological scale was performed with the use of brewer's barley of Trumpf and Polon varieties and with the feed variety Diva, all from the 1982 crop. The highest α-amylase content was found in the Polon variety; this content in the Trumpf variety was lower by about 7%, while in the feed variety Diva it was lower by about 20%. The following conditions were found to favour the accumulation of α-amylase in malt containing no addition of gibberellic acid (g.a.): malted grain humidity - 46%, malting temperature - 18°C, time of malting - 7 days. When gibberellic acid was added in doses of 0.2-0.3 mg/kg barley and when pH of the water with g.a. ranged from 6.5 to 7.5, the mean increase of α-amylase content in the studied malt varieties was 54% as compared to control samples without g.a. In the case of the variety Diva this increase was 57%. The conditions of malting with an addition of g.a. that were worked out allow the production of brewer's malt from Diva barley.
Do słodowania w skali mikrotechnicznej użyto krajowe odmiany browarne jęczmienia: Trumpf i Polon oraz odmianę paszową Diva ze zbioru 1982 r. Określano wpływ zmienności warunków słodowania: namoczenie jęczmienia do 43 i 46%, czas słodowania 7 i 9 dni, pH wody z dodatkiem kwasu giberelinowego (K.G.) od 5,5 do 8,5, dawki K.G. w zakresie 0,2, 0,3 i 0,5 mg/kg. W doświadczalnych jęczmieniach oznaczano: wilgotność, ekstraktywność, białko ogółem, skrobię, wagę 1000 ziaren, celność ziarna i energię kiełkowania. Analiza słodów obejmowała: wilgotność, ekstraktywność w mące i śrucie, białko ogółem, białko taninowe, barwę brzeczki, liczbę Kolbacha, garbniki ogółem, lepkość brzeczki, azot α-aminokwasowy, zawartość α-amylazy (metodą maltozową Briggsa), siłę diastatyczną według Windisch-Kolbacha, zawartość endo-β-glukanazy i zawartość endopeptydaz. Najwyższe zawartości α-amylazy (tab. 2) dawała odmiana Polon (570 j. FS), niższe Trumpf (o ok. 7%), najniższe odmiana paszowa Diva (o ok. 20%). Za korzystne warunki nagromadzania α-amylazy w słodzie bez dodatku kwasu giberelinowego (K.G.) uznano: namoczenie ziarna do wilgotności ok. 46%, temperaturę słodowania ok. 18°C i czas słodowania 7 dni (tab. 2 i 3). Przy ilościach dodawanego kwasu giberelinowego od 0,2 do 0,3 mg/kg jęczmienia i pH wody z K.G. od 6,5 do 7,5 średni przyrost zawartości α-amylazy dla badanych odmian wynosił 54% w porównaniu z próbami kontrolnymi bez K.G. (tab. 5). Dla odmiany Diva przyrost ten wynosił 57%. Opracowane warunki słodowania z dodatkiem K.G. stwarzają możliwości produkcji z jęczmienia odmiany Diva słodu piwowarskiego.

Opis:
An organic solvent and surfactant stable α-amylase was obtained from soybean seeds. The direct and indirect effect of various organic solvents (non-polar, polar protic, and polar aprotic) and surfactants on the activity and stability of free enzyme was determined. The enzyme showed a very high catalytic efficiency and stabilization against most of the organic solvents and surfactants tested, except for few. Those organic solvents and surfactants (like chloroform, dimethyl formamide, n-butanol, and Tween 20), which caused an inhibition in enzyme activity, were used to study their effects on immobilized enzyme. The inhibitory effect was found to be decreased in immobilized enzyme as compared to free enzyme indicating that immobilization imparted stability to the enzyme. Moreover, the possibility of reuse of the enzyme in the presence of the organic solvents and surfactants was increased upon immobilization. The stability of soybean α-amylase towards organic solvents and surfactants shows that it is a potential candidate for use in organic-solvent biocatalysis as well as in detergent industries.

Opis:
As polycarbonate is frequently used in many products, its accumulation in landfills is absolutely harmful to the environment. The aims of this study were the screening and isolation of polycarbonate-degrading bacteria (PDB) and the assessment of their ability in the degradation of polycarbonate (PC) polymers. Nine-month buried- -PC films were used for PDB isolation and identification. The biodegradation ability of the isolates was determined by growth curve, clear zone formation, lipase and amylase production, AFM and FTIR. Bacillus cereus and Bacillus megaterium were identified and considered as PDB. The degradation ability of B. megaterium was significantly higher than that of B. cereus. Both were lipase and amylase positive. AFM and FTIR results showed the initiation of bacterial attachment. The PC biodegradation ability of isolates can be very efficient. Finding such efficient isolates (which was less studied before) will promise a decrease in plastic contamination in the future.

Opis:
Celem podjętych badań było określenie wpływu dodatku alfa-amylazy do mąki żytniej na właściwości ciasta i jakość pieczywa. Materiał badawczy stanowiły trzy próbki mąki żytniej typu 720 o niskiej i bardzo niskiej aktywności enzymów amylolitycznych oraz alfaamylaza, którą dodawano w ilości 15, 20 i 40 g·(100 kg mąki)-1. Aktywność amylolityczną próbek mąki wyjściowej i z dodatkiem alfaamylazy oceniano na podstawie badań amylograficznych i liczby opadania. Przeprowadzono badania reologiczne ciasta za pomocą mixolabu. Wykonano wypieki laboratoryjne. Stwierdzono, że dodatek alfa-amylazy do mąki żytniej powodował obniżenie wysokich wartości parametrów amylograficznych mąki: maksymalnej lepkości i temperatury końcowej kleikowania. Ciasto z mąki żytniej o większym dodatku alfa-amylazy cechowało się mniejszym oporem w punktach wykresu uzyskanego za pomocą mixolabu charakteryzującym właściwości skrobi: kleikowanie (opór ciasta w punkcie C3), podatność na działanie enzymów amylolitycznych (opór ciasta w punkcie C4) i retrogradację (opór ciasta w punkcie C5). Stwierdzono, że wraz ze zmniejszeniem oporu ciasta w punkcie C2, w którym rozpoczyna się kleikowanie skrobi i w punkcie C3 wykresu oraz tempa kleikowania skrobi (wskaźnik β) zwiększała się objętość chleba (współczynniki korelacji odpowiednio r = –0,670; r = –0,726 i r = –0,651). Jakość chleba pod wpływem dodatku alfa-amylazy ulegała poprawie – wzrastała objętość chleba i kwasowość miękiszu a zmniejszała się jego twardość.
The aim of this study was to determine the effect of alpha-amylase addition on the properties of dough and on the quality of rye bread. The experimental material was three samples of rye flour type 720 with low and very low amylolytic activity. Alpha-amylase was added in the amounts of 15, 20 and 40 g (100 kg flour)-1. Amylolytic activity of tested rye flour without and with alpha-amylase addition was assessed by the amylograph properties and falling number method. The rheological properties of dough were tested by mixolab. The laboratory test baking was performed. Alpha-amylase addition to rye flour reduced high values of amylograph properties: maximum vis-cosity and final temperature of gelatinisation. Rye dough obtained from flour with higher alpha-amylase addition was characterised by lower mixolab torque in points which characterise starch gelatinisation (torque in point C3), enzymatic activity (torque in point C4) and retrogradation (torque in point C5). The rye dough with lower torque in point C2 in which gelatinization starts and in point C3 and lower slope β was characterised by higher bread volume (correlation coefficients: r = –0,670; r = –0,726; r = –0,651 respectively). Better quality of bread obtained from rye flour with alpha-amylase addition was observed – the bread volume and titrable acidity increased, and crumb hardness decreased.

Opis:
The clinical assessment of autonomic nervous system (ANS) functioning, enabling the diagnosis of autonomic neuropathy present in the course of many diseases, is currently based on performing simple cardiovascular reflexes (Ewing tests), analyzing heart rate variability (HRV) or heart rate turbulence (HRT), examining skin sweating or recording neurophysiological tests (e.g. microneurography). Laboratory assessment of ANS function is very scarce and practically only includes the plasma assessment of noradrenaline as a surrogate for the biochemical indicator of sympathetic activity. Recently, the possibility of evaluation of selected compounds present in saliva as laboratory markers of not only oral diseases but also systemic diseases has been raised. This work focuses on a brief description of the anatomy and physiology of the salivary glands and describes the formation of saliva, its composition and the use of this bodily fluid in laboratory diagnostics. In addition, the paper specifically discusses the possibility of determining selected compounds that are considered to reflect autonomic activity. A review of the literature indicates primarily four proteomics: two neuropeptides (vasoactive intestinal peptide (VIP) and neuropeptide Y (NPY) that are co-transmitters in autonomic fibers, chromogranin A, a synaptic vesicle protein and α-amylase, a hydrolytic enzyme pre-digesting carbohydrates in the oral cavity. These are currently the most widely investigated agents for their usefulness as laboratory markers of ANS activity.

Opis:
Introduction and aim. Smoking widely affect oral health, including its role in the development of periodontitis. Saliva contains an antioxidant system and various enzymes. The study was designed to evaluate the activity of salivary alpha amylase among individuals who smoke and have periodontitis. Material and methods. A total of 100 participants were included, with 50 cases (cigarette smokers with periodontitis) and the remaining 50 nonsmokers with healthy periodontium as the control group. Saliva samples were collected to measure salivary alpha amylase activity. Results. Smokers with periodontitis had significantly higher levels of salivary alpha amylase compared to the control group(177.96±14.5 vs 94.04±19.6 IU/mL, p<0.001). Additionally, there was a weak negative correlation between the level of alpha amylase and the age of the patients (p=0.01, r=0.376). However, no correlation was found between the level of alpha amylase and the duration of smoking (p=0.584, r=0.079). Conclusion. There is a significant increase in salivary alpha amylase levels among smokers with periodontitis. No correlation was found between age and salivary alpha amylase levels. However, a weak positive correlation was observed between the duration of smoking and salivary alpha amylase activity.

Opis:
α-Amylase (EC 3.2.1.1) was purified from the muscle and intestine of the parasitic helminth of pigs Ascaris suum. The enzymes from the two sources differed in their properties. Isoelectric focusing revealed one form of α-amylase from muscles with pI of 5.0, and two forms of amylase from intestine with pI of 4.7 and 4.5. SDS/PAGE suggested a molecular mass of 83 kDa and 73 kDa for isoenzymes of α-amylases from intestine and 59 kDa for the muscle enzyme. α-Amylase from intestine showed maximum activity at pH 7.4, and the enzyme from muscle at pH 8.2. The muscle enzyme was more thermostabile than the intestinal α-amylase. Both the muscle and intestine amylase lost half of its activity after 15 min at 70°C and 50°C, respectively. The Km values were: for muscle amylase 0.22 μg/ml glycogen and 3.33 μg/ml starch, and for intestine amylase 1.77 μg/ml glycogen and 0.48 μg/ml starch. Both amylases were activated by Ca2+ and inhibited by EDTA, iodoacetic acid, p-chloromercuribenzoate and the inhibitor of α-amylase from wheat. No significant differences were found between the properties of α-amylases from parasites and from their hosts.
