Abstract

The structural study of monosodium urate monohydrate, as the principal component in gout stones, reveals that a simple and biocompatible way to breakdown the crystals into polymerised molecules at pH of 7.4 (the acidity of normal human blood) is to peel off them along the [001] direction by sonication.
