title: Effects of magnesium on calcium oxalate crystallization.
abstract: We evaluated the effect of a range of physiological concentrations of magnesium on calcium oxalate crystallization from artificial urine in a continuous mixed suspension mixed product removal crystallizer at 37C. Magnesium was found to decrease both the growth and nucleation rates of calcium oxalate crystals in the simulated renal environment.
