Typically, 1 ml of U-100 insulin contains 100 units, so in this case the patient would receive 25 units of NPH U-100 insulin.
Where can you find insulin?
Insulin is a peptide hormone produced by beta cells in the Islets of Langerhans in the pancreas and released into the blood; therefore insulin is found in the blood.

This type of insulin is derived from pigs and cattle, or yeast and are manufactured under sterile laboratory conditions.
