Concentrations in nmol/l. Values are means ± SEM. Means with different superscripts are significantly different (P < 0.05). Conjugated bile acid forms: g, glycine; t, tauro. CA, cholic acid; DHCA, 3a,7a-dihydroxy-5β-cholestanoic acid; THCA, 3a,7a,12a-trihydroxy-5β-cholestanoic acid; UDCA, ursodeoxycholic acid.
