“At concentrations greater than 1 mg/ml, albumin inhibited the activity of pancreatic lipase and interfered with enzyme binding to emulsified triacylglycerol particles.”
“It is concluded that … the inhibition of pancreatic lipase … albumin is due to the inaccessibility of the enzyme to an oil-water interface blocked by denatured albumin, then albumin saturated … oleic acid would seem to be protected from unfolding at the interface and more readily displaced by the lipase.”
