Bile is yellow (it is the only colour it comes in!). It has two principle functions 1) as a detergent, emulsifying fats, giving them a higher surface area to enhance digestion, and 2) to alkalise (to increase the pH of, make less acidic) material passed into the duodenum from the stomach which is very acidic and would be damaging to the relatively unprotected tissues downstream of the stomach.
Bile has an enzyme that helps break apart fat so that it can be more easily absorbed in the small intestine.
Bile juice is a juice secreted by bile duct present in liver. It converts bigger fat molecules into smaller soluble molecules called chilomicrons
