    Document: EFFECT OF GLUCOSURIA ON URINE SPECIFIC GRAV-ITY (USG) IN DOGS. Ellen Behrend 1 , Samuel Mueller 1 , Dennis Chew 2 , Hollie Lee 1 . 1 Auburn University, Auburn, AL, USA, 2 The Ohio State University, Columbus, OH, USA Diabetic patients that are historically polyuric and polydipsic can have concentrated urine. Addition of 1 g/dL glucose is expected to change the specific gravity of water by 0.003-0.005. A commonly held belief, therefore, is that concentrated USG in a diabetic patient is due to the presence of glucose, and renal concentrating ability cannot be accurately assessed if glucosuria is present. However, the effect of glucose on USG has not been evaluated. Thus, the purpose of our study was to assess the change in USG in relation to the degree of glucosuria.
