Pancreatic juice requires alkaline medium for their action.

Explanation:

Pancreas is an important organ for digestion. It is located in lower abdomen behind stomach. It secretes 'pancreatic juice' which contains variety of enzymes which includes lipase, pancreatic juice, amylase and nucleases. It is a colorless, odorless, and highly alkaline solution with pH level from 8 to 8.4

The reason of its alkalinity is due to the presence of bicarbonate ions. Bicarbonates are used to neutralize the acidic gastric acid.
