Abstract
It was demonstrated that 7α-hydroxycholesterol-14C administered to a hen furnished with a bile-fistula was converted not only to the common primary bile acids but also to 3β, 7α-dihydroxychol-5- and -4-enoic acids, the latter of which has recently been isolated from bladder bile of hens. As a metabolite of the 7α-hydroxy sterol-14C, allocholic acid was also identified and its natural occurrence in bladder bile once reported was confirmed (see “RESULTS”).
