The effects of original concentration of calcium ion and oxalate ion and crystallization time on the morphology, density and the size of CaC 2O 4 crystals were discussed. In lithogenic urine, calcium oxalate monohydrate(COM) crystals were the dominant phase. However, a mixture of COM and calcium oxalate dihydrate(COD) with a molar ratio of about 3∶2 was obtained in the healthy urine. COD has a less affinity for renal tubule cell surface, so COD is easy to be expelled out from body and there is a less probability of stone-forming in the healthy urine. The fastest nucleation and growth of CaC 2O 4 crystals were obtained in water and NaCl solution, respectively. The size of CaC 2O 4 crystals decreases in the following order: NaCl solution>artificial urine>lithogenic urine>healthy urine>water.展开更多
