disaccharide maltose to the simple sugar form - glucose, and is found
in plants, bacteria, and yeast; and in humans



Maltase is required for
Although the enzyme can be ingested in the diet, it is thought to be
able to be manufactured in the body by the mucus membrane lining in
the intestinal wall.

When starch is eaten, it is partially digested and transformed to
maltose by both the saliva enzymes and pancreatic enzymes called
amylases.

a more ready usable sugar glucose, or the glucose could also be
stored in the liver for future use.
