Elastase Testing of Pancreatic Exocrine Function

A Non-Invasive Stool Biomarker of Pancreatic Exocrine Function. Pancreatic elastase is a protein-digesting enzyme exclusively produced by the human pancreas, and serves as a non-invasive stool biomarker of pancreatic exocrine function. Pancreatic elastase measured in stool has a strong correlation with the invasive gold-standard test for pancreatic insufficiency and, therefore, is a patient-friendly approach for evaluating pancreatic digestive function. Pancreatic elastase is an excellent non-invasive initial test to determine those who may need additional testing for pancreatic digestive dysfunction.

Calprotectin Gastrointestinal Test

An FDA-Cleared Gastrointestinal Test to Distinguish IBS from IBD. The Calprotectin gastrointestinal test effectively distinguishes Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS) from Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD). IBS and IBD often cause similar symptoms of abdominal pain, cramping, and chronic diarrhea, making an accurate diagnosis difficult. Calprotectin reliably differentiates IBS from IBD using a patient-friendly, non-invasive, stool test.
