“Four percent human albumin decreased the inhibitory effects of 100 μM chenodeoxycholic acid and lithocholic acid from 89.9 ± 5.6 to 54.5 ± 6.1 % and from 83.8 ± 4.8 to 20.8 ± 4.2 %, respectively.”

“Addition of albumin enhanced the partitioning of cholesterol out of the micelles in sodium chenodeoxycholate solution as a result of decreased micellar solubility and increased the aqueous solubility of cholesterol in the presence of albumin.”
“Uptake was inhibited by albumin in the order chenodeoxycholic acid 3-sulphate greater than taurochenodeoxycholic acid 3-sulphate greater than taurochenodeoxycholic acid and was dependent on the extent of bile acid binding to albumin.”
