The influence of various factors on aggregation of calcium oxalate crystals in vitro was determined. Aggregation was assessed by filtering the crystal suspension and measuring the flow rate through a filter. 10% urine completely inhibited aggregation. Orthophosphate and magnesium at concentrations o

Prophylactic treatment with alkaline citrate in patients with recurrent calcium oxalate (CaOx) stone disease results in reduced CaOx supersaturation and increased urinary citrate. The effects of a single evening dose were compared with those of two and three daily doses in six recurrent CaOx stone f
The addition of different amounts of hydroxyapatite crystals (HAP) to a solution, metastably supersaturated with respect to calcium oxalate (CaOx) resulted in heterogenous crystallization at seed concentrations exceeding 0.2 mmol/l. The induction period varied between 1 and more than 8 h with the sh
An assay system for the measurement of the rate of Calcium Oxalate Monohydrate (COM) seed crystal growth in a metastable solution of calcium chloride and sodium oxalate containing traces of 14C-oxalic acid was used to assess the inhibitory activity of pyrophosphate (10(-5) M-10(-4) M), citrate (10(-
The effect of citrate on calcium oxalate (CaOx) crystal growth was studied in a system in which series of samples containing [45Ca]calcium chloride were brought to different levels of supersaturation with various concentrations of oxalate. The crystallization was assessed by measuring the amount of
In this study, an efficient microtechnique (gel crystallization method) was used to investigate the in-vivo effect of sodium-potassium citrate on the crystal growth rate of calcium oxalate (Vcr) in human urine samples of 6 healthy volunteers. With a daily dose of 3 X 11 mmol of alkali citrate, Vcr d
