Physicochemical and physiological properties of 5α-cyprinol sulfate, the toxic bile salt of cyprinid fish

5α-Cyprinol sulfate was isolated from bile of the Asiatic carp, Cyprinus carpio. 5α-Cyprinol sulfate was surface active and formed micelles; its critical micellization concentration (CMC) in 0.15 M Na+ using the maximum bubble pressure device was 1.5 mM; by dye solubilization, its CMC was ∼4 mM. At...
