2020年12月26日 · I have shown you basic science pointing to a role of brushite to initiate the common stone, and to empirical science in the form of epidemiology supporting brushite as a risk factor for onset of new stones.

Brushite is a phosphate mineral with the chemical formula Ca HPO 4·2 H 2 O. Crystals of the pure compound belong to the monoclinic space group C2/c and are colorless. [2][5] It is the phosphate analogue of the arsenate pharmacolite.

2016年7月28日 · Some have brushite (Br, calcium monohydrogen phosphate) in their stones. These latter have more kidney damage than HA CaP stone formers, and are a special high risk group of patients. Both kinds of CaP stone formers need special attention.

2024年8月4日 · If your stone contains any trace of brushite, regardless of its percent, it is considered a brushite stone. This classification is essential because brushite stones are resistant to Shockwave Lithotripsy (SWL) and pose a higher risk of kidney damage!

Colorless, light yellow; colorless in transmitted light. Named by Gideon E. Moore in 1865 in honor of American mineralogist George Jarvis Brush (December 15, 1831 Brooklyn, NY, USA - February 6, 1912 New Haven, CT, USA), Professor, Yale University. The phosphate analogue of …

Brushite stone disease is an aggressive form of nephrolithiasis and requires not only a targeted medical and surgical treatment approach but also comprehensive measures for diagnosis and recurrence prevention. The factors and mechanisms driving the formation of brushite stones are not yet fully understood.

Acidic CaP, such as brushite (dicalcium phosphate dehydrate, DCPD), are thermodynamically unstable under pH values greater than 6–7 and thus undergo transformation into more stable CaP. Researchers have also demonstrated that meta-stable brushite (DCPD) may convert to OCP or calcium hydroxyapatite

brushite, rare mineral, a hydrated calcium phosphate (CaHPO 4 ·2H 2 O), that forms colourless to pale-yellow, transparent to translucent efflorescences or tiny crystals. It occurs in small quantities in many phosphate deposits, particularly as an incrustation on ancient bones and as a decomposition product of guano (seafowl excrement).

2022年1月19日 · In this chapter, besides its biomedical applications, the synthesis and properties of brushite were investigated. Brushite consists of two types of crystals, platy and needle-like, and their formation depends on the pH of the medium during precipitation.

2022年1月19日 · Brushite (CaHPO 4 .2H 2 O) is an important calcium phosphate encountered in bone tissue engineering and bone cement formulation.
