Biochemistry is the application of chemistry to the study of biological processes at the cellular and molecular level. Biochemistry is the division of medical laboratory that deals with the measurement of chemicals (both natural and unnatural) in blood, urine and other body fluids. These test results are useful for detecting health problems, determining prognosis and guiding the therapy of a patient.

Biochemistry is the area of chemistry that is generally concerned with analysis of bodily fluids for diagnostic and therapeutic purposes.

There are now many blood tests and clinical urine tests with extensive diagnostic capabilities.

Tests performed are closely monitored and quality controlled.

All Biochemistry tests come under clinical pathology. These are performed on any kind of body fluid, but mostly on serum or plasma.
