| Code | Component | Type | Source | Origin | Function |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| DE1 | Carboxypeptidase |
enzyme | cow | pancreas | peptides into other peptides and amino acids (protein digestion) |
| DE2 | Chymotrypsin |
enzyme | cow | pancreas | protein into peptides (protein digestion) |
| DE3 | Deoxyribonuclease |
enzyme | cow | pancreas & small intestine | converts deoxyribonucleic acid nucleotides(DNA) into pentoses and nitrogenous bases |
| DE4 | Enterokinase |
enzyme | pig | small intestine | converts inactive trypsinogen into active trypsin in small intestine (protein digestion) |
| DE5 | Galactosidase / Lactase |
enzyme | cow | small intestine | converts lactose into glucose and galactose |
| DE6 | Lipase |
enzyme | human | small intestine | converts fat into fatty acids and glycerol (fat digestion) |
| DE7 | Lysozyme |
enzyme | chicken egg white | mouth (saliva), tears and sweat | destroys bacteria and so helps prevent tooth decay |
| DE8 | Maltase |
enzyme | baker’s yeast | small intestine | converts maltose into glucose |
| DE9 | Pepsinogen |
enzyme | pig | stomach | converted by hydrochloric acid into pepsin (protein digestion) |
| DE10 | Pepsin |
enzyme | pig | stomach | converts proteins into peptides (protein digestion) |
| DE11 | Peptidase |
enzyme | pig | small intestine | peptides into amino acids (protein digestion) |
| DE12 | Rennin |
enzyme | calf | stomach | milk protein into casein which allows pepsin to act on it |
| DE13 | Ribonuclease |
enzyme | cow | pancreas & small intestine | converts ribonucleic acid (RNA) into pentoses and nitrogeous bases |
| DE14 | Salivary Amylase / Ptyalin |
enzyme | human | mouth | polysaccharides into maltose (disaccharide) (carbohydrate digestion) |
| DE15 | Sucrase |
enzyme | bacteria | small intestine | sucrose into glucose and fructose |
| DE16 | Trypsin |
enzyme | pig | pancreas | protein into peptides; activates procarboxypeptidase into carboxypeptidase (protein digestion) |
