The process to be described depends upon the following facts:— 1. Ammonium urate is wholly insoluble in saturated solutions of ammonium chloride. 2. If solutions, such as urine, which contain the mixed urates of different bases be saturated with ammonium chloride, the large mass-influence of the latter ensures the rapid and complete conversion of all the uric acid into biurate of ammonium, which, in accordance with (1), is,pari passu , thrown out of solution
