72491-4 Bile acid [Moles/volume] in Stool

Bile acids are mostly absorbed in the intestine. A small amount is excreted into the feces or urine. Patients with a form of irritable bowel syndrome were found to synthesize and excrete higher levels of bile acid. PMID: 22610000

LP15444-0 Bile acid
Bile acids are steroid acids found predominantly in the bile of mammals. They are produced in the liver by the oxidation of cholesterol, and are stored in gallbladder and secreted into the intestine in the form of salts. They act as surfactants, emulsifying lipids and assisting with their absorption and digestion. Synthesis of bile acids is a major consumer of cholesterol. The body synthesizes about 800 mg of cholesterol per day and about half of that is used for bile acid synthesis. In total about 20-30 grams of bile acids are secreted into the intestine daily; about 90% of excreted bile acids are reabsorbed (by active transport in the ileum) and recycled. This is referred to as the enterohepatic circulation. Since bile acids are made from endogenous cholesterol, the enterohepatic circulation of bile acids may be disrupted as a way to lower cholesterol. This is the mechanism of action behind bile acid sequestrants.

LP15444-0 Bile acid
The liver absorbs almost all bile except approximately 1% which spills to the peripheral circulation. With liver diseases, its ability to absorb bile acids may diminish, resulting in increased serum levels. Patients with intestinal malabsorption and metabolic disorders such as Gilbert's disease, Crigler-Najjar syndrome, or Dubin-Johnson syndrome do not exhibit elevated bile acids concentrations.

LP188447-9 specimen weight stool
Normal stool specimens are made up of 25% solid matter and 75% water. Fecal hyperhydration is one of the first signs of an irritated colon. Many clinicians measure the relative water content of feces, together with microscopic and chemical analysis, to evaluate digestive syndromes such as diarrhea, constipation, and malabsorption.
