The advanced knowledge on substrate cleavage by human alpha-amylases promotes the development of chromogenic maltotriosides exclusively cleaved at the aglycone bond. Three essentials are required for this type of binding at the active site of the enzyme: (i) A minimal

The degradation mechanism of a synthetic substrate, 2-chloro-4-nitrophenyl alpha-maltotrioside (CNP-G3), by human salivary alpha-amylase (HSA) was investigated by kinetic and product analyses. It was observed that the enzyme attacked the various CNP-maltooligosaccharides (CNP-G3 to CNP-G6) releasing free CNP. Addition of
