Abstract
In the female rat intoxicated with ethylene glycol the oxaluria increases with the degree of intoxication. The increase is less in the animals treated with succinimide. The comparative study of the results of the dosages made with gas-liquid-chromatography and by various colorimetric methods show that this later gives varying results and underestimates high concentrations of oxalic acid. The result is that any study based on results of dosages of urinary oxalic acid made by colorimetry must be taken with some reserve, and this on whether the oxalic lithiasis is experimentally induced or human, or whether its evolution is spontaneous or influenced by a therapeutic.
