What does a recent clinical trial for the treatment of Zellweger syndrome entail?
It involves determining the effectiveness of giving oral bile acids (cholic acid, chenodeoxycholic acid, and ursodeoxycholic acid) as therapy for affected individuals.
What are the uses of cholic acid?
emusification and absorbtion of fat in the diet from the GIT
What is the pKa of cholic acid and urea?
Cholic acid is a bile acid, a white crystalline substance insoluble in water, with a pKa of about 5.5. Urea is an organic compound with the chemical formula (NH2)2CO often found in the urine of animals, with a pKa of about 0.18.
this substance emulsifies fats in the digestive system?
Sodium taurocholate and sodium glycocholate are sodium salt and are the chief ingredient of the bile of mammals. Glycocholic acid is a conjugate of cholic acid with glycine. Taurocholic acid is a conjugate of cholic acid with taurine. These bile salts help to emulsify the fatty substances for absorption.
How does cholic acid act as a good detergent than cholesterol?
Well, I think tide works best
What is a bile acid?
A bile acid is any of the steroid acids produced by the liver, such as cholic acid, which occur as bile in sodium salts and serve to neutralize the contents of the stomach as they enter the duodenum and to aid the emulsification and absorption of fats.

What is acid bile?
Bile acids are steroid acids found predominantly in the bile of mammals. Bile salts are bile acids compounded with a cation, usually sodium. In humans, the salts of taurocholic acidand glycocholic acid (derivatives of cholic acid) represent approximately eighty percent of all bile salts. Bile acids, glycine and taurine conjugates, and 7-alpha-dehydroxylated derivatives (deoxycholic acid and lithocholic acid) are all found in human intestinal bile. An increase in bile flow is exhibited with an increased secretion of bile acids. The main function of bile acid is to facilitate the formation of micelles, which promotes processing of dietary fat
Do animals have the same stomach acid as humans?
Yes, hydrochloric acid.
What is the principle behind alkaloidal test?
to find out if the substance is acid or akaline
Who has Acid rain?

Do humans have sialic acid?
