Abstract
The qualitative and quantitative aspects of bile acid formation in man under different conditions are discussed. It is suggested that bile acids play an important role in lipid absorption by virtue of their ability to form micelles which solubilize the products of lipolysis, viz., monoglycerides and free fatty acids and likely also cholesterol.Keywords
