Reference values for lipase determination are laboratory- and method-specific. In general, normal results are usually less than 200 units/L (triolein methods by titration or turbidimetry).
A lipase test result of 239 is within the normal range (normal range is typically around 0-160 U/L). Lipase is an enzyme produced by the pancreas and elevated levels can indicate pancreatitis or other pancreatic disorders, so further evaluation may be needed if there are symptoms or other abnormal test results.
A result of 10.0 U/L is actually normal since the normal range is between 10 and 140 U/L. The normal value of 21.0 to 67.0 is incorrect.
The normal range for lipase levels is typically between 0-160 units per liter. However, reference ranges can vary slightly depending on the laboratory conducting the test. It's important to interpret lipase levels in the context of the individual's overall health and medical history.
The lipase test is a blood test performed to determine the serum level of a specific protein (enzyme) involved in digestion.

be asked whether they are taking certain prescription drugs that can affect the accuracy of the lipase test. Drugs that can cause elevated lipase levels include bethanechol, cholinergics, codeine, indomethacin, meperidine, methacholine, and morphine.
20-40 is considered normal
A lipase test is performed on a sample of the patient's blood, withdrawn from a vein into a vacuum tube. The procedure, which is called a venipuncture, takes about five minutes.
Yes
Depending on the lab that does the test. Range of normal is 0-125 pg/ml
Yes, a 4.2 albumin serum result is normal. The normal range for this specific test is between 3.4 and 5.4 grams per deciliter.
