title: [Current concepts of intestinal fat absorption(author's transl)].
abstract: Some details of the general physiology of intestinal fat absorption are discussed taking triglyceride absorption as an example. Special emphasis is placed upon the role of the fatty acid binding protein (FABP) just recently discovered and upon the role of apoproteins for lipid transport from the epithelial cells to the intestinal lymph. On basis of own experimental results the hypothesis is put forward, that a small part of the intestinal energy requirement during fat absorption may be provided by intestinal oxydation of plasma free fatty acids.
