Detection of calcium phosphate crystals in the joint fluid of patients with osteoarthritis – analytical approaches and challenges

Clinically, osteoarthritis (OA) is characterised by joint pain, stiffness after immobility, limitation of movement and, in many cases, the presence of basic calcium phosphate (BCP) crystals in the joint fluid. The detection of BCP crystals in the synovial fluid of patients with OA is fraught with ch...
