Abstract
The chromographic contact print method, making use of the ammonium phosphomolybdate-ascorbic acid reaction, is used to detect phosphates and to view their distribution in urinary stones. This sensitive reaction may take place even if phosphates, especially apatite, are present in such small amounts as to be under the conformation limits of microscopic observation, and X-ray and IR analysis.This publication has 0 references indexed in Scilit:
