1. Cholic acid and chenodeoxycholic acid are the most important human bile acids.2. These are manufactured from cholic acid derived from bovine bile. 3. It is a conjugate of cholic acid with taurine. 4. Chenodeoxycholic acid and cholic acid are the two primary bile acids in humans. 5. Cholic acid is converted into deoxycholic acid and chenodeoxycholic acid into lithocholic acid.6. It is a conjugate of cholic acid with glycine. 7. The two primary bile acids secreted by the liver are cholic acid and chenodeoxycholic acid. 8. Primates ( including humans ) utilize 12? for their third hydroxyl group position, producing cholic acid. 9. Bacteria metabolize chenodeoxycholic acid into the secondary bile acid lithocholic acid, and they metabolize cholic acid into deoxycholic acid. 10. "' Dehydrocholic acid "'is a synthetic bile acid, manufactured by the oxidation of cholic acid.
