Can we predict the presence of struvite stones based on clinical factors? [PDF]
Einstein (São Paulo)Objective: This study aimed to evaluate whether clinical, laboratory, and radiological data could effectively identify struvite stones without the need for crystallographic analysis. Methods: Stone fragments obtained using endourological procedures were

Precipitation Diagrams of Struvite and Dissolution Kinetics of Different Struvite Morphologies [PDF]
Croatica Chemica Acta, 2002 Spontaneous precipitation in the systems MgCl2-H3P04-NH40H-NaCl (0.15 mol dm-3)-H20, MgS04-NH4H2P04-H20 and MgS04-NH4H2P04-NaCl (0.15 mol dm-3)-H20 was studied at 25 and 37 °C and initial pH = 4. Precipitates aged for 24 hours and 30 days were characterized by means of Chemical analyses, X-ray diffractometry, FT-IR spectroscopy and thermogravimetry ...
