Purification and biochemical properties of a salivary α-amylase in Andrallus spinidens Fabricius (Hemiptera: Pentatomidae)
α-amylase is one of the enzymes that has crucial role in extra-oral digestion (EOD) of hemipteran insects. An α-amylase was purified and biochemically characterized from the salivary glands of Andrallus spinidens showing its considerable role in EOD process. It was found an enzyme by specific activ...
