Abstract:
The present invention provides methods for continuous measurement of triglyceride digestibility during a meal. A stable isotope labeled triglyceride and a free fatty acid tracer are added to the meal. The ratio between a ratio of isotope labeled fatty acid produced after digestion to free fatty acid tracer represents the percentage of digestion of triglycerides by lipase from the pancreas.
