Biochem/physiol Actions
Pancreatin contains enzymatic components including trypsin, amylase and lipase, ribonuclease, and protease, produced by the exocrine cells of the porcine pancreas. This combination of enzymes allows it to hydrolyze proteins, starch and fats. Pancreatin will convert not less than 25 times its weight of potato starch into soluble carbohydrates in 5 minutes in water at 40°C, will digest not less than 25 times its weight of casein in 60 minutes at pH 7.5 at 40°C and will release not less than microequivalents of acid per min per mg pancreatin from olive oil at pH 9.0 at 37°C.

We describe a relatively simple in vitro model for triglyceride (TG) lipolysis which mimics closely the conditions in the human stomach and small intestine. The main model advantages are: (1) as in vivo, sodium bicarbonate is used for buffering; (2)
