lysozyme
Yes. Lysozymes and enzymes
Several examples: amylase, lypase, lysozyme.
Your body starts killing germs while chewing because saliva contains a germicidal enzyme called lysozyme.
Lysozyme, also known as muramidase or N-acetylmuramide glycanhydrolase, are a family of enzymes which damage bacterial cell walls by catalyzing hydrolysis of 1, 4-beta-linkages between N-acetylmuramic. Lysozyme is abundant in a number of secretions, such as tears, saliva, human milk and mucus. It is also present in cytoplasmic granules of the polymorph nuclear neutrophils (PMN). Large amounts of lysozyme can be found in egg white. The enzyme functions by attacking peptidoglycans (found in the cell walls of bacteria, especially Gram-positive bacteria) and hydrolyzing the glycosidic bond that connects N-acetylmuramic acid with the fourth carbon atom of N-acetyl glucosamine.

The normal pH level of pig saliva is slightly acidic. The acids and enzymes in pig saliva help to start breaking down food before it is swallowed.
yes they do... lysozyme in saliva and tears-enzyme that hydrolyzes the peptodoglycan
