Abstract

Hippuric acid [C~6~H~5~CONHCH~2~COOH], one of the organic chemical constituents of urinary stone is crystallized in silica gel under suitable pH conditions by double diffusion method. The grown crystals were characterized by density measurement, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, X‐ray powder diffraction and thermogravimetric analysis.
