Abstract:
1. 1. Various bile preparations enhanced the accumulation of 45Ca by laying hen intestine in vitro. 2. 2. Enhancement was greater in the ileum than in the jejunum. 3. 3. Chick bile and sodium-taurocholate depressed oxygen consumption by ileal slices. 4. 4. Sodium-taurocholate did not enhance the accumulation of 45Ca from a low sodium medium, indicating an interaction between sodium and bile salts on calcium transport. © 1972.
