On The Solution Of The Calculus-fokming Substances In The Bile. The calculus-forming substances, cholesterin and bilirubin- calcium, are both insoluble in water. 1. Cholesterin is held in solution in the bile chiefly through the instrumentality of the bile salts of the alkali metals and the soaps and fats. Table VI., which was constructed by Happel from the results of his own experiments, shows the solubility of cholesterin in these substances. Table VI. Solubility of cholesterin in various media at 37?38 C. :?

It is seen that at about 37 C. glycocholate and taurocholate of sodium in O25?2-5 per cent. solutions dissolve about a tenth part of their own mass of cholesterin. Soap in equally dilute solutions dissolves about half its own mass of cholesterin. Fat (olein) dissolves 5 per cent. of cholesterin. According to all analyses of bile?I refer to those published by Kausch in his dissertation?human bile contains ten times, or even more than ten times, as much alkaline bile salts as cholesterin. There are also to be considered the fats and soaps which as a rule are present in bile in quantities many times, and often as much as ten times, greater than that of cholesterin. The solution of cholesterin in the bile is not interfered with by its concentration, and one can evaporate down the bile of dogs and human beings, even to dryness, without ever seeing any separation out of cho...

Cholelithiasis: Webster's Timeline History, 1851 - 2007
$28.95
Webster's bibliographic and event-based timelines are comprehensive in scope, covering virtually all topics, geographic locations and people. They do so from a linguistic point of view, and in the case of this book, the focus is on "Cholelithiasis," including when used in literature (e.g. all authors that might have Cholelithiasis in their name). As such, this book represents the largest compilation of timeline events associated with Cholelithiasis when it is used in proper noun form. Webster's timelines cover bibliographic citations, patented inventions, as well as non-conventional and alternative meanings which capture ambiguities in usage. These furthermore cover all parts of speech (possessive, institutional usage, geographic usage) and contexts, including pop culture, the arts, social sciences (linguistics, history, geography, economics, sociology, political science), business, computer science, literature, law, medicine, psychology, mathematics, chemistry, physics, biology and other physical sciences. This "data dump" results in a comprehensive set of entries for a bibliographic and/or event-based timeline on the proper name Cholelithiasis, since editorial decisions to include or exclude events is purely a linguistic process. The resulting entries are used under license or with permission, used under "fair use" conditions, used in agreement with the original authors, or are in the public domain.
