182251717. Editio Quarta Prioribus Correctior. - Lugduni Batavorum Leiden: Apud Johannem à Kerckhem 1717 4° 24 679 25 pp. Halbledereinband; zarter Stempel auf Titel wenige Seiten etwas gebräunt. Lorenzo Bellini 1643-1704 "entdeckte im Jahre 1663 daß die Substanz der Niere »nicht aus einer harten festen fleischigen Substanz bestehe« sondern »nichts anderes als eine Anhäufung unendlich vieler Gefäße besonderer Art« sei. Diese Entdeckung der Nierentubuli führte zu einer neuen Ausscheidungstheorie die Bellini folgendermaßen beschreibt: »Wenn also das Blut aus den Arterien hervortritt trifft es auf zwei Klassen von Gefäßen die der Venen und die der Nieren. Das Serum von Blut getrennt geht in die Nierenkanäle und das Blut vom serösen Humor befreit geht in die Venen. Diese Abtrennung jedoch erfolgt weder durch Attraktion noch durch Verwandschaft noch durch Sympathie sondern wird einzig und allein durch die dies fordernde Konfiguration der Gefäße vollendet«. Diese rein mechanische Auffassung der Nierenfunktion setzte sich außerordentlich schnell durch und blieb im wesentlichen bis in 19. Jhdt. hinein bestehen." "Darüber hinaus zog Bellini aus seinen Versuchen einen sehr wichtigen Schluß daß die eigentliche Menge des Harns da dieser mit mehr oder weniger Wasser verdünnt sein könne nur aus seinem Gewicht erkannt werden könne: »Hieraus geht hervor« schreibt er weiter »daß das Auge nicht sicher urteilen kann welche Lockerheit oder Dichte der Harn habe . deshalb müssen wir zum Wägen unsere Zuflucht nehmen mit dessen Hilfe die Menge eines Stoffes nicht durch den Vergleich mit dem Raum den das ganze Gemisch einzunehmen scheint beurteilt wird sondern in dem man die gesamte Masse des Körpers vergleicht mit der bekannten Masse eines Körpers von bekanntem Gewicht der genauso schwer ist«. In völlig exakter und heute noch vertretbarer Weise erklärt taucht hier erstmals der Begriff der Dichte des Harns auf." "Doch in den Teilen der Abhandlung die sich mit der medizinischen Bedeutung des Harns befassen tauchen die neuen Methoden der Harnuntersuchung nicht mehr auf. Hauptsächlich werden die Harnregeln der Hippokratischen Schriften kommentiert. . Die hier dargestellte konservative Haltung in der praktischen Medizin ist nicht so verwunderlich wenn man bedenkt daß die Ergebnisse der Harnanalysen zum damaligen Zeitpunkt tatsächlich völlig nutzlos für die Klinik bleiben mußten. Der Versuch die wenigen bekannten Harnbestandteile in irgendeine Beziehung zu bestimmten Krankheiten zu setzen hätte unweigerlich zu Spekulationen führen müssen die denen eines Leonhard Thurneysser nur wenig nachgestanden hätte." J.Bleker Gesch. Nierenkrankheiten 5356616279 "Bellini realized the value of the urine as an aid to diagnosis and insisted on its chemical analysis in pathological conditions".

1860395Delmonico Lorenzo. <i>Ball in Honor of His Royal Highness the Prince of Wales. New York October 12 1860. </i>New York: Delmonico's printed by Spear 1860. A menu printed on silk for a banquet given in honor of Albert Edward Prince of Wales later to be crowned King Edward VII called 'the event of the age' by the <i>Commercial Advertiser</i>. Held at New York's Academy of Music this ball required Lorenzo Delmonico to display all his culinary talents. Lorenzo Delmonico did not disappoint. "With pink and white drapery the rooms of the medical college had been transformed into exotic tents. On the buffet tables the magnificently presented dishes with their elegant-sounding French names were presented by Lorenzo Delmonico the owner of Manhattan's best restaurant." Printed on beige-colored silk with brown type this very fragile surviving menu measures 17 cm x 11 cm having been trimmed slightly from its original size. There are a few places on the upper left side where the silk has broken and there is slight loss of fabric but no loss of text. See: Ian Radforth <i>Royal Spectacle. The 1860 Visit of the Prince of Wales to Canada and the United States. </i>Toronto: University of Toronto Press 2004 reprinted 2019 pages 354 – 355. Lorenzo Delmonico books
