title: [Formation of omega-muricholic acid and fecal excretion of biliary acids in rats].
abstract: Two groups of Rats which were fed the same diet, excreted fecal bile acids of different patterns: in one group, the feces contained a large amount of omega-muricholic acid and very little hydrodeoxycholic acid; in the other group the reversed composition was observed. The first group excreted more total bile acids than the second. This observation suggests that the formation of a large amount of omega-muricholic acid results in an increase in total bile acid fecal excretion.
