"Amylase serum levels will rise with chronic pancreatitis." I am currently researching the effects on serum amylase and lipase in relation pancreatitis as part of a college course I am taking. What I have learned is that the amylase level will be elevated in ACUTE pancreatitis, but will be below the "normal" range in CHRONIC pancreatitis. In addition the lipase levels "parallel" the amylase levels, but lipase is a bit slower to rise and fall. They both elevate with acute pancreatitis, and both fall below "normal" range with chronic pancreatitis. One of my best references in researching these lab values inrelation to pancreatitis is the National Institute of Health (NIH) website.
Serum
The enzyme amylase is released in the mouth, referred as the salivary amylase, and in the duodenum of the small intestine by the pancreas, referred as the pancreatic amylase.
They are Broken down by Amylase Enymes.
Amylase is an enzyme which acts on starch.Amylase breaking it down to sugar.
Serum amylase raised in pancreatitis, DKA
When the pancreas is damaged or diseased, it releases amylase into the blood.
The cast of Serum 114 - 2006 includes: Frank Hruby as Tom Welles
The uses of starch in amylase determination is to find hmuan serum in the human body.

Ptyalin is an alpha-amylase. It is the alpha-amylase found in saliva
Adam Knight ended up dying. He had been given serum that brought him back to life and kept him alive however he ran out of serum and couldn't find anymore.
