| '''Cholic acid''' is a [[bile acid]], a white crystalline substance insoluble in water, with a melting point of 200-201 °C. Salts of cholic acid are called '''cholates'''. Cholic acid is one of the four main [[acid]]s produced by the [[liver]] where it is synthesized from [[cholesterol]]. It is soluble in [[ethanol|alcohol]] and [[acetic acid]]. It forms a [[Conjugated system|conjugate]] with [[taurine]], yielding [[taurocholic acid]].
| |
|
| |
| Cholic acid and [[chenodeoxycholic acid]] are the most important human bile acids. Some other mammals synthetize predominantly [[deoxycholic acid]].
