Amylase is a enzyme that breaks down starch. It does not break it down into its monomer, glucose. Amylase hydrolyses starch into disaccharides and trisaccharides. One of those disaccharides is maltose. These disaccharides and trisaccharides are then hydrolysed by other enzymes, e.g. maltase hydrolyses maltose.
In animal and plant organisms, maltose is formed upon enzymatic splitting of starch and glycogen. Maltose is decomposed into two glucose radicals by the action of the enzyme a-glucosidase (maltase), which is present in the digestive juices of animals and humans, germinated grains, saprophytic fungi, and yeast.
