Equilibrium Study of the Three Component System Oxalic Acid — Sodium Oxalate — Water at 25°
The experimental measurement of chemical equilibria frequently presents problems of considerable difficulty. In some cases the position of equilibrium may be such that the reaction goes nearly to completion in one direction, resulting in an extremely small concentration of one or more of the …

Studies of the effects of various lithogenic and antilithogenic dietry supplements on calcium oxalate kidney stone risk factors in South African black and white subjects
… aspects of this phenomenon. Carbohydrate and oxalate-containing dietary agents were identified as being of interest since surveys have paradoxically demonstrated that the consumption of these potentially lithogenic substances is significantly higher in the black group. The carbohydrates …

The effect of mTOR inhibitor rapamycin on a dietary Drosophila melanogaster model of calcium oxalate nephrolithiasis
… nephrolithiasis, 24-hour urinary excretion of oxalate, sodium, uric acid, calcium, and phosphorous as well as lower pH. Calcium oxalate crystals produce ROS in renal epithelial cells and upregulate ROS and also mTOR activity. Rapamycin pharmacologically inhibits mTOR leading to autophagy – a …

The design, development and testing of a non-invasive continuous crystalliser system for the study of calcium oxalate crystallisation processes
… performed to investigate the effect on calcium oxalate crystallisation of varying the concentration of sodium oxalate solutions used to initiate crystallisation, and also to investigate the effect of varying the temperature. A further series of experiments was performed to determine the effect …

Kidney stone rarity in South Africa's black population : investigation of the biochemical and physico-chemical properties of Tamm Horsfall Mucoprotein as a possible contributory factor
… (THP) is a powerful inhibitor of calcium oxalate crystallisation. Since urolithiasis in South African blacks is extremely rare, this study was undertaken to compare the relative inhibitory and biochemical properties of this protein in South African black and white healthy and …

Comparison of ion chromatography and flow injection analysis methods for monitoring chlorite and chlorate ions in drinking water
… water but was stable for up to three days when sodium oxalate was added and stable up to eighteen days when ethylene diamine was added as a preservative. Chlorate was stable in drinking water for up to eighteen days with or without a preservative. The propagation of errors method for determining …
