How the assay works
Lipase assay kit measure the activity of lipase in a sample by using a reaction that produces a color or fluorescence. The amount of the color or fluorescence produced is proportional to the amount of lipase in the sample. In the lipase assay protocol, lipase hydrolyzes a triglyceride substrate to form glycerol which is quantified enzymatically by monitoring a linked change in the absorbance of a probe (OD=570nm). This kit is suitable for high throughput analysis (HTP).
This lipase assay kit detects lipase activity as low as 0.02mU per well.

Sample Timeline
Plasma lipase levels were measured (using ab102524) after 75 days treatment with saline, liraglutide, exendin-4 or sitagliptin. ND, normal chow diet; HFD, high fat diet. p≤0.05, *; p≤0.01, **, n = 3–7 mice.
There were no detectable differences in plasma lipase activity in mice on a normal chow diet administered any of the three drugs when compared to animals administered saline. Likewise, there was no significant change in plasma lipase activity in mice that were administered saline on a high fat diet vsnormal diet. Furthermore, administration of liraglutide and exendin-4 in combination with a high fat diet also failed to affect plasma lipase activity. We observed no detectable changes in plasma lipase activity in animals maintained on a normal chow diet and administered any of the three drugs when compared to animals administered saline.
