Abstract
Except when testing for ketones, most people with diabetes monitor their glucose levels by testing blood samples rather than urine samples. For many years, however, urine glucose testing was the standard testing procedure. The history of urine testing as presented in this paper gives one an appreciation of the evolution of glucose monitoring, and demonstrates the importance of urine testing in the past and the part it plays in the present management of diabetes mellitus.
