Quantitation of cholesterol crystallization from supersaturated model bile1

Quantitation of cholesterol crystallization from supersaturated model bile1

Cholesterol crystallization is an essential step in gallstone formation. Although spectrophotometry and nephelometry have been used for quantitation of crystallization, potential effects of crystal size and shape have not been evaluated. We determined crystallization in model biles [total lipid conc...
