What bile salts are in bile?
The main bile salts in bile are cholic acid and chenodeoxycholic acid, which are synthesized from cholesterol in the liver. These bile salts help emulsify fats in the digestive system, aiding in their breakdown and absorption.
Which organ secrets bile salts?
liver secrets bile salts from cholesterol
Where are the stone deposits deposits of bill salts found?
The stone deposits of bill salts, commonly referred to as bile salts, are primarily found in the liver and gallbladder of animals, particularly in bile. These salts are synthesized from cholesterol and are stored in the gallbladder before being released into the small intestine to aid in the digestion and absorption of fats. In some cases, these bile salts can form gallstones, which can be found in the gallbladder or bile ducts.
What is the composition of bile?
Bile is composed of water, electrolytes, bile salts, cholesterol, bilirubin, and phospholipids. It is produced by the liver and stored in the gallbladder before being released into the small intestine to aid in the digestion and absorption of fats.
Are bile salts polar or non-polar?
Bile salts are amphipathic molecules, meaning they have both a polar and nonpolar region. They consist of a steroid structure (nonpolar) with hydroxyl groups (polar) attached. This unique structure allows bile salts to emulsify fats in the digestive system.
Why is Bile released in to the small intestines?
The Liver produces bile which is stored in the Gllbladder. As your stomach and intestines digest food, your Gallbladder releases bile through a tube called the common bile duct. The duct connects your Gallbladder and liver to your small intestine. After bile enters and passes down the small intestine, about 90% of bile salts are reabsorbed into the bloodstream through the wall of the lower small intestine. The liver extracts these bile salts from the blood and resecretes them back into the bile. Bile salts go through this cycle about 10 to 12 times a day. Each time, small amounts of bile salts escape absorption and reach the large intestine, where they are broken down by bacteria. Some bile salts are reabsorbed in the large intestine. The rest are excreted in the stool.
What bile salts are in bile?

What sort of chemical is the bile?
Bile is not a chemical, it is bile salts.
Do bile salts produce lipids?
No, bile salts emulsify lipids to aid in their digestion.
What is the most essential part of bile?
Bile salts
Name test for bile pigments and bile salts?
test for bile salts - Hay's sulphur powder test n test for bile pigments - fauchet's test
What job does bile do?
You have bile salts, those are secreted in the bile. You have bile salts called as sodium taurocholate and sodium glycocholate. They act as the agents, which emulsify the fat. That means the fat is broken down to very small spherical particles. This greatly increase the surface area of contact between the lipase enzyme and fat. This helps in digestion of the fat. The bile salts are reabsorbed in lower part of the intestine. So the bile salts are recycled. This process is called as 'Enterohepatic' circulation.
Why is bile important?
bile salts in bile speed up fat digestion
Diseases in which bile salts appear in urine?
If you think too much bile salts appear in the urine, if you're an a s s h o l e, then probably no bile salts will be there
Are phospholipids found in bile salts?
No, but phospholipids are found in bile (along with bile salts, water, cholesterol, bilirubin, and a small amount of other solutes)
Why should one take bile salts?
Bile salts help the body digest fats and absorb important nutrients. Taking bile salts can improve digestion and nutrient absorption, especially for individuals with conditions that affect the production of bile.
What is effect of bile salts on cardiovascular system?
bile salts retained on heart causing bradycardia then heart block
