Worked example
58.5 µmol/L (middle of the reference range) = 327 µg/dL
Conversion formulas
| µg/dL | µg/dL = µmol/L × 5.583 | µmol/L = µg/dL × 0.1791 |
|---|---|---|
| mg/dL | mg/dL = µmol/L × 0.005585 | µmol/L = mg/dL × 179.1 |
| mg/L | mg/L = µmol/L × 0.05585 | µmol/L = mg/L × 17.91 |
| µg/L | µg/L = µmol/L × 55.85 | µmol/L = µg/L × 0.01791 |
Reference range
| Unit | Adults | Men | Women |
