Summary
Analog bile supersaturated with cholesterol was constituted, filtered and divided into equal portions containing no calcium or calcium, 2.5–15 mM. Aliquots were removed over the next 48 h and filtrates analyzed for cholesterol, bile acid and lecithin. Calcium accelerated cholesterol loss from solution in a dose-related fashion.
