Total Bile Acids

Abstract A method is described for the fluorometric determination of fecal bile acids. The method combines solvent extraction and thin-layer chromatography (TLC) isolation technics with a fluorometric method for measuring total bile acids. Recoveries of individual bile acids added to feces averaged 107% with a standard deviation of ± 5.6%. Bile acid excretion in normal human subjects on a self-selected mixed diet ranged from 196 to 460 mg. total bile acids per 24 hr.

Total Bile Acids

Abstract Endogenous NADH-generating enzymes must be inactivated before total serum bile acids can be measured accurately by the direct enzymic method. To do this, we pretreat the sera with NaOH, in a final concentration of 0.1 mol/L. Consequently, lactate dehydrogenase activity at least as high as 30 000 U/L is destroyed, obviating blank determinations. Values for bile acid in serum, so obtained, agree with values obtained after pretreatment with heat, an alkali-methanol solution, or sodium pyruvate, but our pretreatment has the advantages of ease, speed, economy, and negligible blank values.
