Similar to amylase testing, lipase testing is often conducted to check for diseases of the pancreas, most commonly acute pancreatitis. Lipase testing can help diagnose pancreas issues because it shows up in the blood when the pancreas is damaged. This test may also be done for familial lipoprotein lipase deficiency.
Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F. Season salmon with salt and pepper. Place salmon, skin side down, on a non-stick baking sheet or in a non-stick pan with an oven-proof handle. Bake until salmon is cooked through, about 12 to 15 minutes.
Cook your salmon. Consider pan-searing your salmon to a temperature of 125â140ÂºF (52â60ÂºC) on each side. If you do not have a thermometer, avoid overcooking by cooking only skin-side down, briefly cooking the flesh side for only 15â30 seconds once the salmon is opaque but still mostly juicy.
