In this article we will discuss about the History and Advancement of Clinical Biochemistry. Clinical Biochemistry: From the time of Hippocrates (C.460-C.375 B.C.) the crude examination of body fluids including urine had been done. Thomas Willis, in the second half of the 17th century wrote a dissertation on urine and did the sweet taste to differentiate between the two types [...]
