For example, a quick tap on the biceps brachii tendon will elicit a deep tendon reflex in the biceps, which will abruptly shorten. This results in a quick stretch of the triceps (i.e., the antagonist to the biceps). Reciprocal inhibition will act to inhibit contraction of the triceps that would occur otherwise.
Glucose is not usually found in urine. If it is, further testing is needed. Normal glucose range in urine: 0 - 0.8 mmol/l (0 - 15 mg/dL) The examples above are common measurements for results of these tests. Normal value ranges may vary slightly among different laboratories. Some labs use different measurements or test different samples.
The normal fasting value for blood glucose in dogs is between 75 and 120 mg per deciliter. The renal threshold for glucose is 180 mg per deciliter, according to the Merck Veterinary Manual. This means that once the blood glucose levels are over 180 mg per deciliter, the excess glucose is passed in the urine.
