Analysis of the Physical, Chemical and Mineralogical Properties of Gallstones in the Antalya Province of Turkey

The aim of the study is to determine chemical and physical properties gallstones Antalya province. In line with this, mineralogical characteristics 1243 gallstone samples from 69 patients were analyzed, using scanning electron microscopy (SEM) Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) analysis. 
 Cholesterol, carbonate apatite, calcium carbonate, phosphate bilirubinate, protein contents observed. Cholesterol was detected in 95% patients, 44 which obtained female patients. X-Ray Diffractometer (XRD) analysis showed newberyite, struvite, aragonite minerals found gallstones. Newberyite present 59% samples.
 precipitates cases where pH value patient’s bile decreases amount magnesium high. Failure degradation during metabolism may lead formation newberyite Struvite associated presence ammonium bile. Ammonium plant fertilizers can easily be dissolved water. These (newberyite struvite) are human body and, more importantly, intricately involved body’s production destruction mechanisms. Therefore, determining source these crucial for understanding mechanisms formation.
