title: Bile acids in bile after monensin treatment.
abstract: Bile derived from monensin treated bile-fistula rats has been analysed for bile acids content. Bile flow and bile acids decrease in bile following monensin treatment, in agreement with the disruption of the Na+ gradient determined by the ionophore and necessary for the vectorial Na+-cotransport of taurocholate at the sinusoidal pole of the hepatocyte.
