Excerpt from Analysis of the Urine: With Special Reference to the Diseases of the Genito Urinary Organs

The urine indicates, at least very nearly, by its qualitative and quantitative changes, the variation in tissue life. It offers in addition the advantage of easy collection, and its analysis, so far as it interests the practicing physician, can be made with simple appa ratus. The kidney, inasmuch as it is subjected to dis ease, is not a lifeless filtering machine. Through its pathological processes material is added to the urine, from the presence Of which alone is the physician able to make a diagnosis. Murine Offers also in general an indication as to the condition Of the entire body (including its constitutional diseases), and in particular concerning the secretory and excretory urinary appa ratus. On account of the peculiarities Of the numerous substances excreted by the kidneys, the urine possesses a great interest for the physiologist and chemist, and under certain circumstances for the medico-legal expert.
