The Fecal Chymotrypsin Photometric Assay in the Evaluation of Exocrine Pancreatic Capacity. Comparison with Other Direct and Indirect Pancreatic Function Tests
Abstract
Fecal chymotrypsin (FCT) has been measured by a new photometric method (Monotest Chymotrypsin; Boehringer, Mannheim) in 78 patients: 44 with chronic pancreatitis and 34 not affected by any pancreatic disease. The results were compared with those from other tests of pancreatic secretory (secretin-cerulein test) and digestive [serum and urinary p-aminobenzoic acid (PABA) and pancreolauryl] capacity. When FCT values were severely reduced (below 6.7...
