Overview of the amylase serum test
Amylase serum test is a blood test that measures the level of an enzyme called amylase in blood. Amylase is produced mainly by the pancreas and salivary glands for the breakdown of starch. It is also produced by the small intestine mucosa, ovaries, placenta, liver, and fallopian tubes. Assessing amylase levels can offer insight into the health and functionality of your pancreas. Book an amylase serum test near you to diagnose pancreatitis, monitor chronic conditions or gain vital information about your health.
