Deejah Posted September 18, 2014 Share Posted September 18, 2014 Is it possible for Lactobacillus dextranicum to produce amylase? If so, how? I'm asking because what i have seen online points to Leuconostoc dextranicum. I will appreciate it if anyone has an insight to this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndresKiani Posted September 21, 2014 Share Posted September 21, 2014 I have an uncle who is rather arrogant.. and we've had a lot of arguments about how humans digest food. Amylase is an enzyme in our saliva, and pancreas, used to break down starch into monomers. I've never taken a microbiology course, but I know that most some Bacteria have Amylase B as part as an integral protein to break down sugars in their immediate environment.
