Abstract: | Proteinuria is said to have been noted for the first time by D. OOTUGNO in 1770 although it was R. BRIGHT in 1827 who drew the proper conclusions from the phenomenom. Pathological proteinuria then became the subject of study by several workers. In 1878 C. VON LEUBE introduced the concept of a benign proteinuria. A few years later (in 1895) K. MORNEH showed that normal human urine contained small quantities of protein. The figures he gave (22 to 78 mg/litre) are not far from the values most commonly accepted nowadays. |
