Pancreatin, Porcine Pancreas

Biochem/physiol Actions Pancreatin will convert not less than 25 times its weight of potato starch into soluble carbohydrates in 5 minutes in water at 40 degrees C, will digest not less than 25 times its weight of casein in 60 minutes at pH7.5 at 40 degrees C and will release not less than 2 microequivalents of acid per min per mg pancreatin from olive oil at pH9.0 at 37 degrees C.\nOther Notes Contains many enzymes, including amylase, trypsin, lipase, ribonuclease and protease. The National Formulary (N.F.) and the U.S. Pharmacopeia (USP) specify amylase, protease and lipase only.\n\nEC Number: \n232-468-9\n\nMDL number: \nMFCD00131789\n\nUnit Definition: \nPancreatin will convert not less than 25 times its weight of potato starch into soluble carbohydrates in 5 minutes in water at 40 degrees C, will digest not less than 25 times its weight of casein in 60 minutes at pH 7.5 at 40 degrees C and will release not less than 2 microequivalents of acid per min per mg pancreatin from olive oil at pH 9.0 at 37 degrees C.\n\nStorage and Stability:\nMay be stored at 4 degrees C for short-term only.
