Talk:Steapsin

Untitled[edit]

This page could do with a few more references. In clinical medicine we usually refer to "lipase" so "steapsin is a new word for me! I followed the link here from "digestive enzymes" where I was struck by the absence of "lipase" (which is one of the critical tests we use for diagnosing pancreatitis.)doctorwolfie 19:45, 10 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I strongly recommend removing this article and its reference in "digestive enzyme". In common clinical practice, this enzyme is referred to as pancreatic lipase. Pancreatic lipase has a separate record in wikipedia, that is significantly more accurate.

Having looked into this a bit, I agree with the comment above. The term has been barely used for several decades. T.Shafee(Evo&Evo)^talk 12:54, 6 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]
