title: [New method for the continuous determination of the catalytic activity of pancreatic carboxylesterase].
abstract: A new method is reported for the continuous determination of the catalytic activity of pancreatic carboxyl esterase. 1-Naphthyl butyrate is employed as the substrate. The released 1-naphthol is coupled with a new colour reagent, 2,6-dichloroquinone-4-chloroimide. The intensity of the resulting colour is directly proportional to the enzyme activity. Preliminary reference values for serum and pancreatic secretion are reported.
