Synergism of cockroach (Periplaneta americana) alpha -amylase and alpha -glucosidase hydrolysis of starches

Cockroach Periplaneta americana alpha -amylase hydrolysed starch to maltose and maltodextrin. However, this enzyme was not active against maltose and maltotriose (2 h of reaction). alpha -Glucosidase of the same organism exhibited activities toward maltose and maltodextrin to glucose. Synergism was...
