Stevens T, Dumot J, Zuccaro Jr G, Vargo J, Parsi M, Lopez R, et al.
Clin Gastroenterol Hepatol . 2008 Oct; 7(1):114-9. PMID: 18955165
Background & Aims: Endoscopic ultrasound (EUS) detects mild and severe structural abnormalities of the pancreas that correlate with fibrosis. Direct pancreatic function tests (PFTs) detect mild exocrine insufficiency associated with...

Stevens T, Conwell D, Zuccaro Jr G, Van Lente F, Lopez R, Purich E, et al.
Gastrointest Endosc . 2008 Feb; 67(3):458-66. PMID: 18294508
Background: Direct pancreatic function tests (PFT) are conventionally performed with use of double-lumen "Dreiling" collection tubes. We have developed an endoscopic collection method (ePFT) that eases the performance of these...

Conwell D, Zuccaro G, Purich E, Fein S, Vargo J, Dumot J, et al.
Dig Dis Sci . 2007 Mar; 52(5):1206-10. PMID: 17387611
Endosonography (EUS) has emerged as a major diagnostic tool in pancreatic imaging. Direct tests of pancreatic function are considered the most sensitive and accurate method to establish a diagnosis of...

Stevens T, Conwell D, Zuccaro Jr G, Van Lente F, Purich E, Khandwala F, et al.
Am J Gastroenterol . 2006 Feb; 101(2):351-5. PMID: 16454842
Objectives: We have developed an endoscopic method of secretin endoscopic pancreatic function testing (ePFT) to simplify duodenal fluid collection. Validation of the ePFT requires a direct comparison to the traditional...

Conwell D, Zuccaro G, Purich E, Fein S, VanLente F, Vargo J, et al.
Am J Gastroenterol . 2005 Apr; 100(5):1161-6. PMID: 15842594
Background: We have developed a purely endoscopic collection method for the assessment of pancreatic secretory function (ePFT). The pancreatic secretory effects of sedation medications utilized during endoscopic procedures are not...

Moumakwa B, Crawley C, Purich E, Edinboro L, Karnes H
Biomed Chromatogr . 2004 Sep; 19(1):68-79. PMID: 15372508
The purity profile for porcine secretin attributable to contamination by equilibrium products such as aspartoyl(3) secretin has been shown to be dependent on the pH of the analytical system. Capillary...

Stevens T, Conwell D, Zuccaro G, Van Lente F, Khandwala F, Purich E, et al.
Gastrointest Endosc . 2004 Aug; 60(3):351-5. PMID: 15332022
Background: Traditional pancreatic function tests are sensitive for the diagnosis of pancreatic exocrine insufficiency but are cumbersome and difficult to perform. A sedationless endoscopic pancreatic function test that has the...

Devereaux B, Fein S, Purich E, Richard Trout J, Lehman G, Fogel E, et al.
Gastrointest Endosc . 2003 Apr; 57(6):643-7. PMID: 12709690
Background: Secretin, a 27 amino acid polypeptide released in response to duodenal luminal acidification, stimulates secretion of water and bicarbonate from pancreatic ductal cells. To date the only secretin available...
