Abstract: A freely flowable pancreatin of high amylolytic, lipolytic, and proteolytic activity, of a low germ content and substantially free of pathogenic germs and fibrous tissue material, of a high bulk weight between about 500 g./liter and about 700 g./liter and a very fine particulate size is produced according to the continuous process of extracting finely comminuted pancreas glands with a mixture of chlorinated hydrocarbons and fluoro-chloro-carbons and, if required, water, separating the fat-containing solvent phase, and recovering pancreatin from the enzyme phase.
