Abstract
We have previously reported the existence of near “pure” potassium urate in selected areas of a few urinary stones and also results suggesting that most of the urates studied could not be regarded as stoichiometric salts (1,2). Table 1 shows the cation composition (mg/g) of several urate stones which were selected by their infrared spectra. The highest proportion of urates was less than 73% of the total weight.
