Abstract
Carbonate apatite (CA) and hydroxyapatite (HAP) are components of infection urinary stones, the occurrence of which is becoming more frequent, especially in highly developed countries. The reasons for this increase can be traced to the consumption of highly processed food, the production of which uses flavor enhancers and preservatives. One of the substances used in the food industry is phosphoric acid (H3PO4). In this manuscript, we present the results of research on the effect of phosphoric acid on the mineralization of CA and HAP, focusing on physical, chemical and microbiological aspects. The research was conducted in artificial urine in the presence of the relevant bacteria and without them, imitating their activity in a chemical way. The effect of phosphoric acid on the mineralization of CA and HAP is explained based on theoretical speciation analysis of chemical complexes formed in urine in the presence of the tested acid.
期刊介绍：
ChemPlusChem is a peer-reviewed, general chemistry journal that brings readers the very best in multidisciplinary research centering on chemistry. It is published on behalf of Chemistry Europe, an association of 16 European chemical societies.
Fully comprehensive in its scope, ChemPlusChem publishes articles covering new results from at least two different aspects (subfields) of chemistry or one of chemistry and one of another scientific discipline (one chemistry topic plus another one, hence the title ChemPlusChem). All suitable submissions undergo balanced peer review by experts in the field to ensure the highest quality, originality, relevance, significance, and validity.
