Definition: The word "amylohydrolytic" comes from the Greek words "amylos" (meaning "ammonium") and "hydrolysate," which means "to dissolve, to separate or to break up." The Hebrew word for "amylos" is "ammos" and its meaning in English is "nitrates." The root "amylos" derives from the Greek verb "amiōs," which means "to combine, to mix together." In this context, "amylohydrolytic" likely refers to a process where an amino acid is dissolved in water, thus allowing it to be separated or broken down into smaller, more accessible forms. This could involve processes such as the separation of hydrolysates from ammonium (ammonium), and it may also include the process of breaking down amino acids into smaller compounds without loss of function. For instance, a process that might involve "amylohydrolytic" would be the hydrolysis or digestion of proteins, which involves the breakdown of amino acids to smaller peptides. This could lead to the formation of new amino acids or the production of more stable amino acid derivatives (such as proanthocyanines or glutathione).
