Comparison of Physicochemical Properties of Nano- and Microsized Crystals in the Urine of Calcium Oxalate Stone Patients and Control Subjects

Figure 5

XRD patterns of urinary crystallites of calculi patients after filtration through membranes with different pore sizes: (a) 1.2 μm; (b) 3.0 μm. Black star: COM; ▲: uric acid. This figure demonstrated that the components of nanosized urinary crystallites were similar to those of the microsized crystallites.
