In order to have a rapid method of measuring the inhibition of calcium-oxalate monohydrate growth in freshly voided whole urine, a test system by Meyer and Smith that has originally been developed for diluted urine was modified. The crystallization processes were monitored by an ion-selective calciu
This paper describes a simple method to measure the capacity of undiluted urine and of other inhibitor containing solutions (PPi and EHDP) to protect a given mass of calcium oxalate crystals from growth. The method has also been used to determine relative urinary saturation with respect to calcium o
Standardized calcium oxalate monohydrate (COM) crystal growth assay system was employed to study the ability of various test samples to influence growth rates of COM crystals. The inhibitory activity (IA) of various samples was expressed in terms of inhibitory units. Urine samples obtained from norm
