Abstract
A method for the estimation of faecal fat excretion using cuprous thiocyanate as a continuous marker is described. Results obtained from a single stool sample are in close agreement with those from a three-day collection using this technique. The method is simpler and more accurate than collections done without a marker.Keywords
