Abstract
An accurate and sensitive method that involves the group separations of serum bile acids (i.e. free and glycine- and taurine-conjugated bile acid fractions) by ion-exchange chromatography on piperidinohydroxypropyl-Sephadex LH-20 is described. Each group was then analysed by high-pressure liquid chromatography by using the post-column reaction technique with immobilized 3 alpha-hydroxy steroid dehydrogenase. The bile acid patterns in the umbilical venous serum samples were analysed by this method. Taurochenodeoxycholate predominated in the umbilical blood.
