“…Hoenig and Preisig showed in dogs that the choleresis due to bromosulfophthalein, ioglycamide, and taurocholate per millimole of compound excreted was 9.2, 11.9, and 7.3 ml, respectively (7). As early as 1953 Langecker, Harwart, and Junkmann noted increased bile flow associated with the biliary excretion of iodipamide in the rat and dog (8). Sperber and Sperber, using data from Fischer's studies in dogs (10), determined that the excretion of 1 mmol of iodipamide resulted in the production of about 35 ml of bile (17).…”
