Abstract:Amylase activity was measured in normal sera and serum of patients with acute
pancreatitis and mumps. A significant decrease of enzyme activity in patients with acute
pancreatitis was observed after incubation with specific antibody against hog pancreas amylase.
A minimal effect of the antibody on normal serum and on that from mumps patients was
noted. A comparable effect was observed in the presence of glyceraldehyde used as an amylase
differentiating factor.
