U"ric, a. Etym: [Gr. urique. See Urine.] (Physiol. Chem.)
Definition: Of or pertaining to urine; obtained from urine; as, uric acid.
Uric acid, a crystalline body, present in small quantity in the urine
of man and most mammals. Combined in the form of urate of ammonia, it
is the chief constituent of the urine of birds and reptiles, forming
the white part. Traces of it are also found in the various organs of
the body. It is likewise a common constituent, either as the free
acid or as a urate, of urinary or renal calculi and of the so-called
gouty concretions. From acid urines, uric acid is frequently
deposited, on standing in a cool place, in the form of a reddish
yellow sediment, nearly always crystalline. Chemically, it is
composed of carbon, hydrogen, nitrogen, and oxygen, C5H4N4O3, and by
decomposition yields urea, among other products. It can be made
synthetically by heating together urea and glycocoll. It was formerly
called also lithic acid, in allusion to its occurrence in stone, or
calculus.
