α-amylase, also known as starch-1, 4-dextrin enzyme, is officially named α-1, 4-D-glucane-glucoside hydrolase. When acting on starch, it can cut α-1, 4-glucoside bond from starch, glycogen, oligosaccharide or polysaccharide molecules in a random way to produce maltose, oligosaccharides and glucose. It is one of the most widely used enzyme preparations in industrial production. In addition, the probability of hydrolysis of the α-1, 4-bond located in the middle is greater than that of the hydrolysis of the end of the molecule, and cannot hydrolyze the α-1,6 bond of amylopectin, nor the α-1, 4-bond adjacent to the 1,6 branch point and maltose, but can hydrolyze oligosaccharides containing three or more α-1, 4-glucoside bonds. Because the reductive end glucose residue C1 carbon atom of the hydrolysate is α configuration, it is called α-amylase.
