GORDON CONFERENCE ON CALCIUM OXALATE

第二届戈登草酸钙研究会议已在 批准于1989年6月12日至16日，并将在普利茅斯州举行 学院，普利茅斯，新罕布什尔州。 会议将侧重于物理， 草酸钙的化学和生物学研究。 的重要性 对人类和其他脊椎动物中草酸钙的研究， 事实上，百分之十的人口患有尿石症。 直到一种廉价的预防草酸钙尿石症的方法， 发展，将继续有一个密集的需要， 研究以草酸钙为中心。 草酸钙生产的 细菌、植物和真菌导致尿石症问题， 饮食. 然而，对这些生物体中草酸钙的研究提供了模型 系统和独特的机会，将刺激研究人员 研究人类尿石症 第二届戈登钙会议 草酸盐还将扩大跨学科的联系和理解 在一个通常不聚在一起的不同研究人员群体中。 本次会议的主要重点将是制定和阐述 富有成果的研究领域，无论是短期还是长期， 造福人类，虽然发展更大的了解， 草酸钙在尿石症中的作用。

The second Gordon Research Conference on calcium oxalate has been approved for June 12-16, 1989, and will be held at Plymouth State College, Plymouth, New Hampshire. The conference will focus on physical, chemical and biological research on calcium oxalate. The importance of research on calcium oxalate in man and other vertebrates evolves from the fact that ten percent of the human population experiences urolithiasis. Until an inexpensive prophylaxis of calcium oxalate urolithiasis is developed, there will continue to be a serious need for intensive research centering on calcium oxalate. Calcium oxalate produced by bacteria, plants and fungi contribute to the urolithiasis problem through diet. However, studies of calcium oxalate in these organisms offer model systems and unique opportunities that will stimulate investigators studying human urolithiasis. The second Gordon Conference of Calcium Oxalate also will extend the interdisciplinary ties and understanding among a diverse group of researchers who do not normally meet together. The major focus of this conference will be to develop and enunciate the areas of fruitful research, both near and long term, that should directly benefit mankind though the development of greater understanding of calcium oxalate in urolithiasis.
