This section provides a set of tables that list the normal range of values for physiologic variables in several common species of animals. There is also a set of conversion tables for different types of measurements. Because test values vary between laboratories, veterinarians evaluating a test should consult their local laboratory for a set of appropriate reference values.

Foodborne pathogens have similar nutritional and environmental requirements that affect their ability to multiply. Food handlers can control these aspects to limit pathogen growth. For example, pathogens grow best when the temperature is 40°F and 140°F. In general, perishable foods should not be kept in this danger zone for more than how many hours?
