At the beginning of the 20th century, the enzymes in body fluids were measured clinically to diagnose diseases. For example, Wohlgemuth measured amylase (AMY) in urine as early as 1908 to diagnose acute pancreatitis. In the 1930s, alkaline phosphatase (ALP) was clinically tested for the diagnosis of skeletal diseases, and then it was found that many liver and gallbladder diseases, especially when obstructive jaundice occurred, this enzyme often increased significantly. These enzymes became routine test items in clinical laboratories at that time, and ALP was still the most frequently tested enzyme in the world until the 1960s.

Enzymes are biocatalysts produced by living cells in organisms, most of which are usually globular proteins. These enzymes can effectively catalyze various biochemical reactions and promote the metabolism of organisms under normal human conditions. Life activities such as digestion, absorption, breathing, exercise, and reproduction are all enzymatic reactions. Therefore, enzymes are the basis for cell survival.
