The pharmacological effects of malt

1. Digestive effects: This product contains ? and? Amylase. And starch is a mixture of sugar starch and gum starch. The glucose molecules that make up the sugar starch are connected by ? -1,4 glycoside bonds are connected and arranged in a straight chain. Gum starch is made up of several short straight chains of condensed glucose arranged crosswise. Branched-chain starch molecules are linked by ? -1,4 glycosidic bonds in addition to the ? -1,6 glycosidic bonds. The amylase enzyme hydrolyzes the ? Amylase hydrolyzes the ? -1,4 glycosidic bonds, but not the ? Amylase hydrolyzes the ?-1,4 glycosidic bond, but has no effect on the ?-1,6 glycosidic bond. Amylase completely hydrolyzes the sugar starch to maltose, and ? Amylase breaks it down into short straight-bonded condensed glucose (i.e., dextrin), which can then be hydrolyzed to maltose by? Amylase hydrolyzes it to maltose. Thus starch in ? and ? amylase can be decomposed into maltose and dextrin. Malt decoction of gastric acid and pepsin secretion seems to have a mild promotion effect.
