Pancreatic amylase what is it?
Amylase is an enzyme that hydrolyzes starch and is produced in the
pancreas and saliva. Amylase enters the blood if there is a
duct obstruction or cell necrosis occurs. It is then
excreted in the urine (with a delay of 8-10 hours).
In renal failure, urinary amylase has normal
values or is reduced, while in plasma it may be increased
A similar phenomenon is observed in macroamylasemia.
