Experientia Aims and scope Submit manuscript

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.
