Abstract
It have been demonstrated, both in vitro and in vivo, that struvite stone formation is related to urinary tract infection with urease-producing bacteria such as Proteus and Pseudomonas1–3. This paper presents a method for the study of the in vivo formation and prevention of struvite in stones in rats.
