Dear
Colleagues:
We
have a patient with unexplained isolated elevation of serum
lipase.
I
will be grateful for advice about how to exclude/confirm the
possibility of
Macrolipasemia?
Can
PEG precipitation be used? If yes; at what concentration of
PEG?
Is
there any lab that can test for this using chromatographic
method?
Thanks
Mohamed
