Bile juice creates an alkaline medium for the pepsin to act on proteins { HCl in the stomach had earlier activated the pepsinogen to pepsin} and convert them to amino acids. Bile salts also break up larger fat globules into smaller globules ( emulsification ) so that they can be acted upon by the pancreatic juice's enzyme lipase, which will convert them into fatty acids.
