About this service
Description
An amylase test is used to measure the amylase enzyme in the blood or urine. This enzyme is produced by the pancreas and salivary glands in the human body. It is responsible for crucial bodily functions such as breaking down carbohydrates and helping with food digestion. This test is recommended for individuals for the diagnosis of pancreas disease, kidney problems, and several other conditions.
Overview of the Amylase Test
Amylase is an enzyme secreted by the pancreas and salivary glands in the body. This enzyme breaks down carbohydrates and converts them into sugar. The main purpose of this enzyme is to aid in food digestion. Human blood has serum amylase, but if it is higher than the normal range, it indicates injury or blockage of pancreatic tubes.
An Amylase serum test is suggested by a doctor to measure the level of amylase in the blood or urine. Usually, an amylase blood test is ordered along with a lipase test. The doctor uses the amylase serum blood test result for the diagnosis of several medical conditions, such as pancreatitis, pancreatic cancer, and gallstones.
