Urea: the chief nitrogenous end-product of protein metabolism, formed in the liver from amino acids and from ammonia compounds; found in urine, blood, and lymph. (does not cause gout)

Uric acid: water-insoluble end-product of primate purine metabolism; deposition of it as crystals in the joints and kidneys causes gout.
