Abstract:SummarySerum unconjugated and conjugated bile acids in young infants with intrahepatic cholestasis (idiopathic neonatal hepatitis syndrome, n = 8) or extra‐hepatic cholestasis (preoperative extrahepatic biliary atresia, n = 8) were examined by an enzymatic procedure and high‐performance liquid chromatography. In comparison with the mean level of total serum bile acid of controls having no liver or gastrointestinal diseases, those of each group markedly increased (15.6 ± 5.1 vs. 120.9 ± 64.0 and 161.8 ± 54.2 nm… Show more
