Lipase Activity of Digestive Enzyme Preparations

The measurement of the cytochrome oxidase activity of enzyme preparations.

containing 1 ml. 15 % glycerol solution, 1-0 ml. 0-1 M-sodium acetate, 0-5 ml. 0-3 M-bicarbonate solution and 0 5 ml. of the enzyme solution. Occurrence of the back reaction would have given rise to an uptake of C02 from the system, but in fact no such uptake was observed. Under these conditions, therefore, no back reaction takes place, so that the incompleteness ofthe de-esterification cannot ...

Subclinical zinc deficiency impairs pancreatic digestive enzyme activity and digestive capacity of weaned piglets - CORRIGENDUM.

This study investigated the effects of short-term subclinical Zn deficiency on exocrine pancreatic activity and changes in digestive capacity. A total of forty-eight weaned piglets were fed ad libitum a basal diet (maize and soyabean meal) with adequate Zn supply (88 mg Zn/kg diet) during a 2-week acclimatisation phase. Animals were then assigned to eight dietary treatment groups (n 6) accordin...

Effect of fasting on the clearing factor lipase (lipoprotein lipase) activity of fresh and defatted preparations of rat heart muscle.

The clearing factor lipase (lipoprotein lipase) activities of homogenates of fresh tissue and of acetone-ether powders have been compared in hearts from fed and starved rats. The activity of the enzyme measured in homogenates of acetone-ether powders is generally higher than that in homogenates of the fresh tissue. Activation is due to an effect of the acetone-ether treatment on enzyme which is...
