Actividad diastásica o amilásica. La determinación de la actividad diastásica de la harina es un índice de la cantidad de amilasas presentes en la harina. Las amilasas actúan sobre los gránulos de almidón dañado (durante la fermentación de las esponjas) y sobre los gránulos de almidón gelatinizados (durante el horneo), brindando a la levadura suficiente cantidad del azúcar fermentable (maltosa).
