Anything related to things that are too small to see them with the eye, and the tools used to observe them.
This space is quite general in scope - microscopes, microbiology, small component electronics, questions about buying optical components, etc.

Are those crystals usually present in urine? Or is their presence indicative of some disease?
Calcium oxalate naturally is found in food. A bit in urine sediment does not correspond to a disease, but any abnormally elevated levels can indicate eg. kidney stones or whole organism issues like diabetes or other. Ill pass a link.
