  (1) A collecting bank has a security interest in an item and any accompanying documents or the proceeds of any of the following:
  (a) If an item is deposited in an account, to the extent to which credit given for the item has been withdrawn or applied.
  (b) If an item for which it has given credit is available for withdrawal as of right, to the extent of the credit given whether or not the credit is drawn upon and whether or not there is a right of charge-back.
  (c) If it makes an advance on or against the item.
  (2) If credit given for several items received at one time or pursuant to a single agreement is withdrawn or applied in part the security interest remains upon all the items, any accompanying documents or the proceeds of either.
