Theprecipitation of a large amount of uric acid does not necessarily signifyan increase in its elimination. Uric acid varies greatly in shape and size, and is of a yellowish-brownor reddish-brown color, except when precipitated in very thin plates, when its color is pale yellow, or it may appear almost colorless. Differentvarieties of uric acid are met with, some of which are frequently seen andconstitute the common forms, while others are found more rarely. When CRYSTALLINE AND AMORPHOUS SEDIMENTS. 71 present in larger amount it becomes precipitated in the form of reddishmasses, which adhere to the sides of the vessel and produce the so-calledbrick-dust sediment. These masses are known as gravel or sand. The common form of uric acid (see Fig. 19) consists of rhomboidalprisms—lozenge shape
