Pancreatic ;ipase helps in the digestion of fats to fatty acids and glycerol.
Fats are emulsified by the bile produced by the liver producing fat globules. The fat globules are further digested by lipase to form fatty acids and glycerol.
Fats are digested at the small intestine.

What enzyme digests stains containing fats?
The name of the type of enzyme that digests stains containing fats is Lipase.
Is pancreatic lipase an emulsifier?
No, pancreatic lipase is not an emulsifier, but an enzyme that digests lipids. To have an optimal digestion, it needs a colipase (also pancreatic) + previous emulsification of the lipids by mecanical and chemical (biliary salts) mecanisms. Lipase transforms TG into MG and free fats, which are then absorbed by the enterocytes.
What types of enzyme digests stains containing fats?
The enzyme that breaks down fat is lipase.

Which type of enzyme digests fat and what does it digest fat into?
Proteases are enzymes that digest proteins. Examples of proteases that are used in the human body include Pepsin (an enzyme in the stomach), and Trypsin (an enzyme in the small intestine) which digest proteins into amino acids, or polypeptide chains composed of amino acids.
