#1
Front (Question)

What is the chemical name of LIPASE?

Back (Answer)

Triacylglycerol Acylhydrolase

#2
Front (Question)

What is the systematic name of Lipase?

Back (Answer)

E.C.3.1.1.3

#3
Front (Question)

Why can’t LIPASE be seen in the urine?

Back (Answer)

Because lipase is absorbant to the circulation.

#4
Front (Question)

What is needed for the full catalytic activity of LIPASE?

Back (Answer)

Bile salts and cofactor (colipase)

#5
Front (Question)

What is the reaction catalyzed of Lipase?

Back (Answer)

The long chain fatty acids of glycerol esters.

#6
Front (Question)

What do you call the water-insoluble substances that lipase only acts on?

Back (Answer)

Emulsified substrate

#7
Front (Question)

Lipase requires access to ____________ that’s why the emulsion of this will increase the surface of lipids causing now a more effective lipase activity.

Back (Answer)

Lipid

#8
Front (Question)

What is the importance of Lipase?

Back (Answer)

Responsible for triglyceride metabolism

#9
Front (Question)

If lipase acted on triglycerides, what would be the product/products.

Back (Answer)

Free fatty acids + glycerol

#10
Front (Question)

What are the examples of TAG-rich molecules?

Back (Answer)

Chylomicrons and VLDL

#11
Front (Question)

What is the major tissue source of lipase? How many times is the increase?

Back (Answer)

Pancreas; 9,000 folds

#12
Front (Question)

What is/are the tissue source of LIPASE?

Back (Answer)

PANCREAS GIT LEUKOCYTES ADIPOSE CELLS COLOSTRUM

#13
Front (Question)

In the methods of determination of LIPASE, what are the specimen used?

Back (Answer)

Serum Pleural fluid Ascitic fluid

#14
Front (Question)

What are the inhibitors in the methods of determination of lipase?

Back (Answer)

Heavy metals Quinine Esterase inhibitors

#15
Front (Question)

What does not inhibit the lipase?

Back (Answer)

fluoride or arsenilate

#19
Front (Question)

This is the phase where the bacteria is adjusting to a new environment.

Back (Answer)

Lag phase

#20
Front (Question)

This is the phase where rapid multiplication of bacteria takes place

Back (Answer)

Log / exponential phase
