Inhibition of a-amylase activity by condensed tannins

The ability of grape seed procyanidins to inhibit a-amylase activity was studied using a colorimetric method. This ability was found to be related with the average degree of polymerisation of the tested procyanidins. These interactions were further evaluated by fluorescence quenching, dynamic light...
