Trypsin (Try)

Trypsin is one of the major digestive enzymes secreted by the pancreas. Trypsin is a hydrolase secreted by the pancreas that hydrolyzes amino acid compounds linked by peptide chains and has esterase activity. The content of normal serum is very small, and determination of serum trypsin has a certain significance for the diagnosis of acute pancreatitis. Basic Information Specialist classification: Digestive examination classification: biochemical examination Applicable gender: whether men and women apply fasting: fasting Tips: When collecting specimens, please avoid digging the part of the urine and tap water in the toilet. Normal value 1. RIA method: negative. 2, enzyme rate method (37 ° C): duodenal juice: 150 ~ 600μg / ml. Clinical significance Increased: Most patients with acute pancreatitis and chronic renal failure have significantly increased trypsin, and more than half of pancreatic cancer and chronic pancreatitis patients have increased trypsin. However, there are also 20% of patients with non-pancreatic abdominal pain, especially those with perforation of cholecystitis and duodenal ulcer, and trypsin is also increased. Reduction: pancreatic exocrine insufficiency (late stage of chronic pancreatitis). High results may be diseases: acute pancreatitis, pancreatic cancer, chronic pancreatitis precautions 1. When collecting specimens, please avoid digging the part that is stained with urine and tap water in the toilet. Also, do not place the feces directly on toilet paper or paper towels. 2. To avoid interference with the test results, do not use cotton swabs to dig. 3. Do not collect too much feces to avoid having enough specimens for inspection. 4. If you need to detect fecal occult blood by chemical method, please avoid eating red meat, liver and spinach, cabbage, broccoli and other foods three days before collection to avoid false positive results. 5. If you use the immunological method to detect fecal occult blood, you do not need to limit the type of diet. 6. Because infants and young children are not easy to get enough samples at one time, if they need to be collected separately, please temporarily store the samples in the refrigerator to avoid bacterial growth. 7, serum pancreatic protease can rise to 2 to 400 times of normal people in acute pancreatitis, usually return to normal in 10 to 15 days. Inspection process The test specimens are collected immediately after collection, and the detection method is determined by the enzyme rate method. Not suitable for the crowd Inappropriate people: Generally there are no people who are not suitable. Adverse reactions and risks Not found yet.
