Specific serum pancreatic lipase determination, with use of purified colipase.

Gregor Hoffmann, Ludwig Weiß

Abstract

We show that the turbidimetric method of Ziegenhorn et al. (Clin. Chem. 25: 1067, 1979) for determination of pancreatic lipase is not influenced by lipoprotein lipase. This improved specificity as compared to standard lipase methods is explained by the presence of purified colipase and the high concentration of bile acids in the substrate emulsion.
