The effect of inositol-hexakisphosphate (phytate) on urinary risk factors for calcium oxalate urolithiasis in South African population groups with different kidney stone risk profiles : theoretical modelling, in vitro crystallisation experiments and in vivo human studies
The principal aims of this thesis were to establish whether soluble calcium-phytate complexes inhibit calcium oxalate crystallisation and whether a higher dietary intake of phytate in South African black subjects compared to white subjects may contribute to the relative rarity of urolithiasis in thi...
