  • Title: [About the estimation of human parotid gland amylase in fractionated secretions (author's transl)].
    Author: Eichner H.
    Journal: Laryngol Rhinol Otol (Stuttg); 1979 Jan; 58(1):76-82. PubMed ID: 763057.
    Abstract:
    The amylases are the main proteins in parotid secretions. In 30 probands the amylase secretion is observed under rest and gustatoric and parasympathicomimetic stimulation. A stimulation specific behaviour of amylase secretion is found. Under parasympathicomimetic stimulation by subcutaneous injection of Pilocarpin a high increase of amylase concentration is observed, in comparison to gustatoric stimulation where the concentration doesn't change. Different enzymatic activities of amylase under rest- and stimulation-conditions couldn't be found.
