Enhanced Enzyme Activity with Ferritin Nanocages
I n this study, a novel enzyme system based on ferritin nanocages was designed. α-Amylase was covalently crosslinked on surface of ferritin nanocages by EDC/NHS. The activity of immobilized enzyme was monitored by using UV-vis spectrophotometer.

Following Enzyme Activity with Infrared Spectroscopy
Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy provides a direct, "on-line" monitor of enzymatic reactions. Measurement of enzymatic activity is based on the fact that the infrared spectra of reactants and products of an enzymatic reaction are usually ...

Impact of calcium on salivary α-amylase activity, starch paste apparent viscosity and thickness perception [PDF]
Thickness perception of starch-thickened products during eating has been linked to starch viscosity and salivary amylase activity. Calcium is an essential cofactor for α-amylase and there is anecdotal evidence that adding extra calcium affects ...
