Serum Bile Acids

Turnaround: 1-2 business days after receipt of samples. This times may vary depending upon day and time the samples are received. See assay schedule.

 

Control ranges (dogs and cats):

Fasting (12 hour) bile acid concentrations should be less than 13 μmol/L.

Two hour post feeding concentrations should be less than 30 μmol/L.

Elevated concentrations are indicative of significant hepatobiliary dysfunction.
