Studies on lipase and esterase in human post heparin plasma.
Lipase and esterase in post heparin plasma from patients with various diseases were well correlated, r=0.77. Lipase and esterase hydrolyzed both tri and monoacylglycerol. The chain lengths of fatty acids in esters susceptible to the enzymes became longer by conversion of the substrate from triacylglycerol to monacylglycerol.
