The pancreas secretes trypsin and chymotrypsin enzymes which continue breakdown proteins into smaller peptides and some single amino acids. Carboxypeptidase also secreted by the pancreas splits single amino acids from the carboxyl end of proteins. Bile, which contains a mix salts, is secreted by the liver . Bile salts help to continue digestion of fats by attaching to small fat droplets, preventing them from coalescing into larger droplets, thereby increasing their surface area so that they can be further broken down by lipase enzymes.
