Application of nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy for identification of ciprofloxacin crystalluria.

This is a report describing a previously healthy young patient, who experienced crystalluria and non-cholestatic acute liver injury after a single intravenous dose of 400mg. The nuclear magnetic resonance spectra confirmed that the urinary sediment in our patient was formed by pure ciprofloxacin. The nuclear magnetic resonance spectra ((1)H NMR) of the urine sediment are a good test to confirm the composition of the crystals observed by electron microscopy and infrared spectrum.
