What causes intestinal lactase enzymes to decrease?
Intestinal lactase enzymes usually decrease naturally with age, but this happens to varying degrees.
Whats the function of the lactase substrate?
Lactase is the bodily enzyme that breaks down Lactose, a sugar found in milk.
Is lactase breaking down lactose dehydration or hydrolosis?
lactase catalyses hydrolysis of lactose.
How common are enzyme deficiencies other than lactase?
Deficiencies in enzymes other than lactase are extremely rare.
What is lactase used for?
Lactase improves the digestion of milk by some people who lack the enzymes, aka lactose intolerance.
What causes intestinal lactase enzymes to decrease?

What happens when milk is treated with lactase?
Lactase is an enzyme that breaks down lactose in milk. This allows lactose intolerant individuals to drink the lactose free (or reduced lactose) milk.
Will lactose intolerance occur individuals that do not have the enzyme maltase?
no, this only happens when you insufficiently produce lactase.
How soon after eating lactose does a person with lactase deficiency show symptoms?
In an individual with lactase deficiency, gastrointestinal distress begins about 30 minutes to two hours after eating or drinking foods containing lactose.
Where is lactose broken down in the body?
Lactose is broken down in the body by an enzyme called lactase, which is produced in the small intestine. Lactase breaks down lactose into its two component sugars, glucose and galactose, which can then be absorbed by the body for energy. If a person is deficient in lactase, they may experience lactose intolerance.
People with lactose intolerance produce insufficient amounts of?
the enzyme, lactase
What do you call the Enzyme that breaks down dairy sugar?
lactase
What would happen of we didn't have lactase?
if we didnt have lactase we would all be dead
Whats the function of the lactase substrate?
Lactase is the bodily enzyme that breaks down Lactose, a sugar found in milk.
What lack of enzyme cause lactose intolerance?
The enzyme which the body uses to digest lactose is lactase.
Is lactase breaking down lactose dehydration or hydrolosis?
lactase catalyses hydrolysis of lactose.
What is the chemical equation for lactose and lactase?
Lactose is C12H22O11. Lactase can have many different equations.
