| 1. | Cholic acid and chenodeoxycholic acid are the most important human bile acids.
|
| 2. | These are manufactured from cholic acid derived from bovine bile.
|
| 3. | It is a conjugate of cholic acid with taurine.
|
| 4. | Chenodeoxycholic acid and cholic acid are the two primary bile acids in humans.
|
| 5. | Cholic acid is converted into deoxycholic acid and chenodeoxycholic acid into lithocholic acid.
|
| 6. | It is a conjugate of cholic acid with glycine.
|
| 7. | The two primary bile acids secreted by the liver are cholic acid and chenodeoxycholic acid.
|
| 8. | Primates ( including humans ) utilize 12? for their third hydroxyl group position, producing cholic acid.
|
| 9. | Bacteria metabolize chenodeoxycholic acid into the secondary bile acid lithocholic acid, and they metabolize cholic acid into deoxycholic acid.
|
| 10. | "' Dehydrocholic acid "'is a synthetic bile acid, manufactured by the oxidation of cholic acid.
