Abstract
The recent research shows most of the urinary stones are grown by Calcium Oxalate Monohydrate (COM). The COM crystal growth requires the excretion of calcium, oxalate and water in the urine. In the present study, COM is grown by solvent evaporation method. The fundamental growth parameters such as solubility, induction period, critical radius, volume free energy change, and critical free energy barrier have been estimated. On the basis of the obtained nucleation data, single crystals were successfully grown.
