Clinical Metabolomics is the Next Step in Clinical Biochemistry
Author(s): Bruno Giardina*
Clinical biochemistry is a field that primarily relies on biochemical analyses of various body fluids, the most important of which are urine, blood,
and cerebrospinal fluid. Centuries of scientific advancements have paved the way for the relatively recent significant advancements in this field.
Standard analytical chemistry in the clinical setting has seen decades of significant advancements thanks to technological innovation and the introduction
of cutting-edge instruments. Clinical biochemistry was founded on primitive methods like Richard Bright's (1789-1858) test for proteinuria
in cases of suspected renal disease, in which a candle flame heated a tablespoon of urine. The beginning of the twentieth century could only be
traced to minor technological advancements. In 1920, "a centrifuge, a urinometer, two monocular microscopes, two small substage microscope.. Read More»
