The three functions of the pancreas are to produce enzymes for digestion, to produce bicarbonate to neutralize gastric acid, and to produce insulin to signal cells in the body to begin taking nutrients out of the blood in anticipation of digestion and absorption of food. The major test include: Enzyme secretion testing. The most accurate way to test for enzyme secretion is direct function testing. The method is to place a hose, tube or catheter at, on into the pancreatic duct, and measure pancreatic secretion for a about 90 minutes (depending on the test) after stimulating the pancreas with a hormone (e.g. CCK) or a test meal.
More about the tests used for both types of pancreatitis: 1  Amylase is the pancreatic and salivary gland enzyme responsible for digesting carbohydrates. 2  Lipase is the pancreatic enzyme that, along with bile from the liver, digests fats. 3  Trypsin is the pancreatic enzyme that digests proteins. Amylase is the pancreatic and salivary gland enzyme responsible for digesting carbohydrates. 2  The level will increase 2 to 12 hours after the beginning of symptoms of acute pancreatitis and peaks at 12 to 72 hours afterward. 3  It may rise 5 to 10 times the normal level and will usually return to normal within a week.
