What do we test for?

Pancreatic Elastase

Elastase is a digestive enzyme produced by the pancreas. Measuring elastase in stool helps assess exocrine pancreatic function and can identify conditions like chronic pancreatitis or pancreatic insufficiency.

How will this help you?

What is the Pancreatic Elastase Stool Test?

The Pancreatic Elastase Stool Test measures the concentration of elastase – a digestive enzyme made by the pancreas – in your faeces. Elastase helps break down proteins and is a reliable marker of exocrine pancreatic function. This at-home test offers a non-invasive alternative to blood test kits and lets you test elastase levels at home.

Frequently asked questions

What is an Elastase stool test and why is it important?

The Pancreatic Elastase Stool Test measures the level of elastase – a key digestive enzyme produced by the pancreas – in your stool sample. It assesses exocrine pancreatic function and helps identify conditions like chronic pancreatitis or pancreatic insufficiency.

How do I collect a stool sample at home for the Elastase test?

Collect a small stool sample at home using the supplied faecal container, seal it per the instructions, and send it in the prepaid envelope to our accredited lab. Results are typically available in 3–5 working days.

How do I interpret my Elastase test results?

Normal pancreatic elastase levels in stool are usually above 200 µg/g. Levels between 100–200 µg/g may indicate mild insufficiency, while levels under 100 µg/g suggest moderate to severe exocrine pancreatic insufficiency. Always review results with a GP.

Our at-home Elastase stool test kit is >95% accurate when instructions are followed. It provides a non-invasive alternative to traditional blood test kits for assessing pancreatic function.

Can I use this test if I’m taking pancreatic enzyme supplements?

If you take pancreatic enzyme supplements, continue as directed by your doctor. Inform your GP when you send your sample, as supplements can influence results. Your GP follow-up appointment can help interpret your results in context.
