Data confidence 70 medium
How this score is calculated

It is built from checkable properties of the record itself: whether the article has a DOI, how many independent sources confirmed its data, whether the required fields are filled in, and how recent the latest confirmation is. Disagreement between sources and a missing identifier lower it. A value of 80 or above means the record was published without further checking; 60 to 79 means it is published at reduced confidence, with a manual check advisable. A record verified by an editor by hand is never pushed below 90 by a recalculation. This scores our data about the article, not the article itself.

Abstract

Амилазы представляют собой группу ферментов, которые широко распространены в микробном, растительном и животном мире. Они разлагают крахмал и родственные полимеры с образованием олигосахаридов. По субстратной специфичности амилазы классифицируются на α- и β- амилазу, которые катализируют гидролиз гликозидных связей в амилозе и амилопектине. Настоящий обзор посвящен ферменту α-амилаза, который составляет основную долю ферментов на мировом рынке и находит широкое применение в разных отраслях промышленности, таких как пищевая, текстильная, бумажная, крахмалоперерабатывающая, где он полностью заменил химический гидролиз. Amylases are a group of enzymes that are widely distributed in microbial, plant and animal kingdoms. They degrade starch and related polymers to small oligosaccharides. By substrate specificity, amylases are classified to α-, and β- amylases, which catalyze the hydrolysis of glycoside bonds in amylose and amylopectin. This review focuses on the microbial α-amylase, which has potential application in a wide number of industrial processes such as food, textile, paper, starch processing, where enzymes have completely replaced chemical hydrolysis.
