Kidney diseases, urinary deposits, and calculous disorders : their nature and treatment . the amount is liable to great varia-tion, that, in the present state of animal chemistry, it is quite impossibleto form an estimate of the amount derived from the former source, orto separate this from the phosphates taken in the ingesta. Still it is certain that some of the phosphoric acid is formed withinthe organism, by the oxidation of the phosphorus of the albuminoustissues, though this must bear but a small proportion to the whole amountof phosphate removed in the urine, as the above data conclusive
