Studies on the stability of pancreatic enzymes in duodenal fluid to storage temperature and pH.
The effects of storage pH and temperature on pancreatic amylase, lipase and trypsin in duodenal fluid were studied. All the enzymes were most stable when stored at --20 degrees C, while the optimum storage pH was found to depend on the particular enzyme under investigation.
