Pancreatic lipase is a water-soluble enzyme secreted by the pancreas. Like other lipases, its function is to break down lipids (fats) in the intestinal tract.

∙ 9y agoPancreatic lipase is the primary enzyme that breaks up fat molecules in the digestive system. This substance flows from the pancreas to the small intestine, where it does its work.

A drug that blocks the action of lipoprotein lipase would?
be nice.
Is lipase exo- or endoenzymes?
Lipase is an exoenzyme
What do lipase act on?
lipase is an enzyme that breaks down lipids
Is enterobacter aerogenes lipase negative?
Yes it is. You can easily check it out yourself by using a tributyrine based agar. If Enterobacter aerogenes builds a lipase action enzyme, the surrounding of your colonies will be much clearer. If you have any other questions, I suggest you the Bergey's manual of systematic bacteriology.
Where in the body is lipase produced?
Lipase is produced in the Small Intestine and Pancreas.Lipase is produced in the pancreas.
What is the primary action of orlistat?
It inhibits pancreatic lipase
A drug that blocks the action of lipoprotein lipase would?

What does fat break into in the digestive system?
Fat breaks into fatty acids and glycerol by the action of lipase in the small intestine.

What is difference between site of action and onset of action?
site of action is the location (site) where the drug do there action ........ while onset of action is the starting of effects produced due to drug............... both are clearly different..........
Is lipase acidic?
yes lipase is acidic
Is lipase exo- or endoenzymes?
Lipase is an exoenzyme
