  • Affiliation with a Social Security organization
  • Able to give informed consent to participate in the research.

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Patient with a hepatobiliary pathology
  • Patient treated with Colestyramine
  • Patient who has undergone cholecystectomy or extensive resection of the small intestine
  • Patient deprived of liberty
