چکیده

EDITORIAL SYNOPSIS Trypsin and chymotrypsin activity per gram of stool varies inversely with the weight of the sample in control African subjects. The total daily output of both enzymes in patients with pancreatic calcification does not differ significantly from the output of control subjects. The lower mean concentration of the enzymes in chronic pancreatic disease can be accounted for by the weightier stool found in these patients.

Changes of digestive enzymes activity in Caspian Kutum (Rutilus frisii kutum) during larval developmental stages

The ontogenesis and specific activities of pancreatic (trypsin, chymotrypsin, amylase and lipase) and intestinal enzymes (alkaline phosphatase, aminopeptidase N) were investigated in Kutum (Rutilus frisii Kutum) from the onset of exogenous feeding (3 day after hatching, DAH) to the juvenile stage at 50 DAH. Trypsin- and chymotrypsin-specific activity showed similar patterns and increased with l...

Changes of digestive enzymes activity in common carp (Cyprinus carpio) during larval ontogeny

This study was aimed to gain knowledge on the ontogeny of digestive enzymes in common carp larvae at the governmental Warm water Fish Aquaculture Center of Shahid Rajaee in Sari, Mazandaran, Iran. The ontogenetic development of pancreatic (trypsin, chymotrypsin, lipase and α-amylase) and intestinal (alkaline phosphatase and aminopeptidase-N) enzymes were assessed in common carp larvae from firs...

Immunoreactive elastase I: clinical evaluation of a new noninvasive test of pancreatic function.

We have evaluated the diagnostic value of the fecal elastase test in comparison with the secretin-pancreozymin test in the diagnosis of exocrine pancreatic insufficiency. Pancreatic elastase was measured immunologically. Immunoreactive elastase activity in spot stools from controls ranged from 136 to 4440 microgram/g; 95% of all values were within 175 to 1500 microgram/g. The elastase assay CVs...
