2. Struvite - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Struvite

   Struvite (magnesium ammonium phosphate) is a phosphate mineral with formula: NH 4 MgPO 4 ·6H 2 O. Struvite crystallizes in the orthorhombic system as white to yellowish or brownish-white pyramidal crystals or in platy mica-like forms. It is a soft mineral with Mohs hardness of 1.5 to 2 and has a low specific gravity of 1.7. It is sparingly ...

   Oversaturation of urine with crystals is by far the biggest factor in stone formation in dogs and cats. [3] This oversaturation can be caused by increased excretion of crystals by the kidneys, water reabsorption by the renal tubules resulting in concentration of the urine, and changes in urine pH that influence crystallization.

   He then investigated dietary factors influencing the formation of calcium oxalate (CaOx) and magnesium ammonium phosphate (MAP) uroliths in cats, finding that diets high in sodium increase the risk of CaOx uroliths while urine acidifying diets low in magnesium and phosphorus reduce the risk and enhance the dissolution of MAP uroliths. [19]

5. Ammonium phosphate - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ammonium_phosphate

   Triammonium phosphate can be prepared in the laboratory by treating 85% phosphoric acid with 30% ammonia solution: [citation needed] H 3 PO 4 + 3 NH 3 → (NH 4) 3 PO 4 (NH 4) 3 PO 4 is a colorless, crystalline solid. The solid, which has the odor of ammonia, is readily soluble in water. The salt converts to diammonium hydrogen phosphate (NH 4 ...

6. Feline lower urinary tract disease - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Feline_lower_urinary_tract...

   Cats with chronic feline lower urinary tract disease caused by struvite uroliths are sometimes treated with a lifelong diet of prescription wet food as these special diets acidify urine which dissolve struvite. However ordinary wet food with high moisture content and rich in animal protein can be just as effective in many cases as it keeps the ...

7. Ammonium dihydrogen phosphate - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ammonium_dihydrogen_phosphate

   Monoammonium phosphate is a widely used crystal in the field of optics due to its birefringence properties. As a result of its tetragonal crystal structure, this material has negative uniaxial optical symmetry with typical refractive indices n o = 1.522 and n e = 1.478 at optical wavelengths. [7]
