nmol/L pg/mL ng/dL pmol/L

Worked example

15 pg/mL (middle of the reference range) = 0.0979 nmol/L

Conversion formulas

nmol/L	nmol/L = pg/mL × 0.006528	pg/mL = nmol/L × 153.2
ng/dL	ng/dL = pg/mL × 0.1	pg/mL = ng/dL × 10
pmol/L	pmol/L = pg/mL × 6.528	pg/mL = pmol/L × 0.1532

Reference range

Unit	Adults
nmol/L	0 – 0.1958
pg/mL	0 – 30
ng/dL	0 – 3
pmol/L	0 – 195.8
