Hi, Antonia,

I wanted to add that "blood tests" are often performed to check if the blood found in a suspicious place corresponds to that of a suspect, or even to trace parenthood.

Antonia · Answer

Thanks, because in one of Croatian dictionaries it said that these two are synonymous.
I don't know if I got it right- blood chemistry shows the state your blood is in? For example, if you eat too much sugar, this will be reflected on/in your blood chemistry. Am I right?

Pieanne · Answer

To me, you're right!

Thanks pieanne

Good day Antonia,

What you say above is not entirely correct. Blood chemistry is a science that explains the normal composition of blood and the proper tests that are to be done to detect the levels of Glucose, Cholesterol, Creatinine etc... You can say it is the science that explains the normal composition of blood and explains how a blood test should be properly done.

On the other hand, blood tests show the state your blood is in. For example, Benedict's test detects the amount of sugar in your blood. A blood test, as you know, can be normal or abnormal.
