Since this is not my area of expertise, I searched Google under the key words "saliva enzyme" to get these possible sources:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Saliva
http://www.worldchiropracticalliance.org/tcj/1996/jul/jul1996loomis.htm
http://www.woodrow.org/teachers/chemistry/institutes/1988/starch.html
In the future, you can find the information you desire more quickly, if you use appropriate key words to do your own search. Also see http://hanlib.sou.edu/searchtools/.
I hope this helps. Thanks for asking.
