Gastric acid.
What is the medical term meaning hard deposit formed in the gallbladder and bile ducts due to concretion of bile components?
That is called a gallstone.
Why is bile not considered an enzyme?
Bile is not considered an enzyme. Bile rather allows enzymes to interact more effectively with enzymes secreted by the pancrease. The way that bile does this is to help break fat into small droplets and surrounding these droplets. These droplets are called micelles. This provides increased total surface area of fat for pancreatic lipolytic enzymes to interact with. These primary enzymes that interact with the bile formed micelle are glycerol ester hydrolase (pancreatic lipase), cholesterol esterase, and phospholipase A2. Bile is primary composed of the following: (1) bile acids, (2) bile pigments, (3) cholesterol, and (4) phospholipids. drazx is the original author of this answer Bile is not an enzyme. It breaks up oil droplets. it also neutralises stomach acids.
What is the definition of acute cholocystolithiasis?
Cholelithiasis refers to the formation of rock-like crystalline deposits (gallstones or biliary calculi) in the gallbladder. Development is insidious and may remain asymptomatic for years. The major component of most (approximately 85%) gallstones is cholesterol (cholesterol-predominant or "mixed" gallstones also containing calcium salts). These occur either as a solitary stone or multiple stones of varying sizes. Others stones (approximately 15%) are composed solely of calcium salts (calcium carbonate, calcium bilirubinate) or crystallized bile pigments (bilirubin). Pigment stones are more common in Asian than in Western populations. The gallbladder stores bile, a fluid that is produced in the liver to aid in the digestion of fats. Normal bile is sterile and contains a high level of cholesterol, which usually remains in liquid form. When the bile contains too much cholesterol and/or levels of cholesterol and lecithin are imbalanced, the bile becomes supersaturated. When this occurs, solid crystals of cholesterol and calcium salts form and settle out of the liquid bile creating sludge or gallstones. Other causes of cholelithiasis include production of bile that contains inadequate amounts of certain chemicals (phospholipids or bile acids) or blockage of the ducts carrying bile from the gallbladder to the intestine (biliary stasis). Obstruction can also lead to colonization of bile with bacteria, resulting in infection. Individuals with high heme turn over (e.g., cirrhosis, hemoglobinopathies including sickle cell disease, thalassemia, spherocytosis) are predisposed to bilirubin stones. United Nations Farms
Why coliform show pink color colony in violet red bile agar?
Violet Red Bile Agar is recommended for use in the microbiological analysis of milk and other dairy products and for use in the examination of water. Violet Red Bile Agar is a selective medium which detects the growth of lactose fermenting coliforms. Coliforms colonies lower the pH of the medium subsequently causing their colonies to look red (neutral red dye) and to precipitate the bile salts. Crystal violet and bile salts inhibit the growth of Gram positive microorganisms.
Where is the bile produce which components of food does it help to digest?
it is produced in the liver.it helps breaking fats into smaller bits called emulsification of fat.
What is the common term for calculi in the sac that stores bile?
gall bladdera
Is a bile duct the same as a bile?
no because bile is stored in the bile duct
What is the liquid secreted in liver?
bile
What is gallbladder sludge?
Gallbladder sludge is a collection of cholesterol, calcium, bilirubin, and other compounds that build up in the gallbladder. It is sometimes called biliary sludge because it occurs when bile stays in the gallbladder for too long. Bile is a greenish-yellow fluid that produced in the liver and stored in the gallbladder.

What sort of chemical is the bile?
Bile is not a chemical, it is bile salts.
