I131 labelled triolein (glyceryltrioleate) and oleic acid131 absorption studies as an index of small intestinal function

  • Published:
Irish Journal of Medical Science (1926-1967)

Summary

  1. (1)

    Triolein I131 absorption is as good an index of absorption as the other tests (such as the Vitamin A Absorption and fat balance test) in routine use. Serum estimation gives the most satisfactory and most convenient results.

  2. (2)

    Contrast between triolein I131 and oleic acid I131 absorption is helpful in differentiating pancreatic absorption from other types due to disease of the intestinal wall.

  3. (3)

    There is good correlation between Vitamin A and triolein I131 absorption.
