| Commentaires : | A urinalysis is an array of tests performed on urine and one of the most common methods of medical diagnosis. Test results were seen as color changes in the clear test tube that had the mixed urine and chemical in it. The kit was made by the Edwin Horatio Nelson, the president and William S Baker, treasurer and director. The Nelson, Baker & Co of Detroit was incorporated in 1889. Dr. William Keir was the doctor in Malpeque until 1917 and then his son James practiced until 1944. They both worked out of the family home. |
