In Horses
◦ Horses don’t have a gall bladder, so there is a continuous secretion
of bile into intestine.

Hepatocytes
Bile Acids Also
Cholesterol called (Primary
bile acids)
Totally Insoluble in Water Renders lipids soluble in Water
Conversion of Cholesterol into Cholic acid (Bile Acid). Note the presence of two additional
Hydroxyl groups on ring structure o f cholic acid as compared to cholesterol. These
Hydroxyl groups enhance water solubility and detergent action of bile acid molecule.

Information Slide
Consider the general acid-base reaction in aqueous solution: Where HA is the "acidic
form", or "protonated form" of any given substance, and A- is the "basic form", or
"deprotonated form“.
HA H+ + A-
The pertinent equilibrium expression for the above reaction is:
Ka= [H+][A-] /[HA] Where Ka is Acid Dissociation Constant
Taking the logarithm on both sides of the equation we obtain:
Log Ka = Log ([H+][A-] /[HA])
Log Ka = Log [H+] + log [A-] - log [HA]
Multiplying both sides of the equation by -1 we obtain:
-Log Ka = -Log [H+] - Log [A-] + Log [HA]
Substituting "–log" by its equivalent, "p“:
pKa = pH + log [HA] - log [A-]
And finally, combining logarithm parts of this equation we obtain the Henderson-
Hasselbach equation
pKa = pH + log ([HA]/[A-])
pKa =pH + log ([Protonated form]/[Deprotonated Form])
For Acids pKa =pH + log ([Unionized Form]/[Ionized Form])
