Variations in the activity of urinary inhibitors in calcium oxalate urolithiasis

F Grases et al. Br J Urol. 1988 Dec.

Abstract

Opinions vary on the effects produced by urinary inhibitors of crystallisation. We describe a simple method for studying inhibitory effects in urine based on nephelometry and optical microscopy. It was concluded that the inhibitory effect of a given substance on calcium oxalate crystallisation depends on the particular sample of urine being examined and that the most effective inhibitor can be determined only by studying the urine of each patient individually.
