title: [About the estimation of human parotid gland amylase in fractionated secretions (author's transl)].
abstract: The amylases are the main proteins in parotid secretions. In 30 probands the amylase secretion is observed under rest and gustatoric and parasympathicomimetic stimulation. A stimulation specific behaviour of amylase secretion is found. Under parasympathicomimetic stimulation by subcutaneous injection of Pilocarpin a high increase of amylase concentration is observed, in comparison to gustatoric stimulation where the concentration doesn't change. Different enzymatic activities of amylase under rest- and stimulation-conditions couldn't be found.
