Abstract
Disodium, dipotassium and magnesium salts of ethylenediamine
tetraacetic acid (EDTA) have been studied as inhibitors in the mineralisation
of urinary stone forming minerals, viz., calcium phosphate, oxalate
or carbonate. Inhibition efficiency has been studied in different
experimental models. Effect of some macro- and micro-nutrient metal
ions on the inhibition efficiency of disodium EDTA has also been
investigated. Utility of the results in urolithiasis inhibition has been
discussed.
